[Divakar R]

With gnucash 1.8.8, I got the following error: 

Started gnucash using /opt/gnome/bin/gnucash in a terminal and got:
ERROR: Could not find slib/require.scm in  ("/usr/share/guile" 
"/opt/gnome/share/gnucash/guile-modules" "/opt/gnome/share/gnucash/scm" "" 
"/usr/share/guile/site" "/usr/share/guile/1.6" "/usr/share/guile" ".")

required version of slib is installed. how do I solve the problem? OS is SuSE 
Professional 8.2. Please advise.

Thanks and Regards,
Div.
