Not sure, but Gnucash 2.0.0 is now going. Thanks for your input. At one
stage make could not find libosp. An earlier post on the list suggested
renaming this file when compiling. So I renamed libofx.la to libofx.la.bk.
This worked for me as well on this Suse system.

However I have a remaining issue. All of my gtk apps, Gnucash 2.0, Synaptic
and Gimp have a black background in their pull down menu's. When the cursor moves
across the list the text is just visible. I think it is related
to a bug in gtk2. I have googled on this a number of times without success.
If anyone can suggest a solution I would be grateful. Downgrading to an
earlier version is not possible now that Gnucash 2.0 is functioning. And I
cannot find any gtk2 upgrades for my system...
