I think you are missing some packages. Take a look at my Debian list and see 
if there are equivalent -devel packages that you haven't installed.

Keep that in the command (use a bash script).

Have you installed OFX? If not, remove the enable command.

(You probably don't need --enable-debug to do translations).

1.8? so this is HEAD, not G2. The latest version will be G2. See the CVS page 
on the gnucash website for how to retrieve the G2 branch.

Have you got doxygen installed?

Could be missing gettext - kind of essential as that's what creates the files 
to use with the translation!

You may not have installed gwrap and guile properly.

It would certainly appear that you have not installed gettext.

Or glib? You do need glib-devel.

The rest of the output is complaining about the results of the missing macros 
that are installed with the development versions of the corresponding 
packages.

As I thought, the real problems were higher up in the output.
