Derek,

   All prerequisites are installed now. Removed slib and g-wrap and
re-installed per above. Versions are slib2d6 (or slib-2.4.6) and
g-wrap-1.9.6.

   Gnucash-2.0.5 configure bails out here:

checking for SLIB support... configure: error:

    Cannot find SLIB.  Are you sure you have it installed?
    See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=347922

   SLIB is located:

/usr/lib/slib
/usr/local/lib/slib
/usr/local/share/guile/1.6/slib
/usr/share/guile/site/slib

with the first a soft link to the second. Different attempts to configure
gnucash-2.0.5 reported it not found in each of those locations; I'm sure it
should be in only one directory, but I don't know which one that is.

   Running this script:

guile -c "(use-modules (ice-9 slib)) (require 'printf)"
guile -c "(use-modules (g-wrap))"

produces: ERROR: no code for module (g-wrap).

   I also ran:
  guile -l /usr/local/share/guile/1.6/slib/guile.init
guile> (require 'new-catalog)
#f
guile> (exit)

   I know nothing about guile and the SLIBs. Does the above information
provide insight into what's mis-configured?

Thanks,

Rich
