I'm glad you don't think so, but you're wrong.  Your system is
quite screwed up.  I've got Fedora 7, I've only got RPMs installed,
and I have no problem building GnuCash.

You neither want nor need usb-scheme (or umb-scheme, for that matter)
on F7.  On my system:

[warlord at pgpdev linux]$ rpm -qa | grep -i scheme
[warlord at pgpdev linux]$

Right, try removing umb-scheme and try again.   In fact, I can't even
FIND umb-scheme for Fedora 7!  Where did you find it?

[root at pgpdev warlord]# yum search umb-scheme

See above.  I HAVE you umb-scheme.

Fix your system.  Remove umb-scheme, then reload slib to
the F7 3a4 version.
