   Ah, yes. That's what it was.

   It's being quite feisty. When I find where g-wrap is located I get this:

/usr/local/share/guile/site/g-wrap
/usr/local/include/g-wrap

   Then I added those to PKG_CONFIG_PATH thusly:

echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/local/share/guile/site/g-wrap/:usr/local/include/g-wrap/

   But, configure still is not happy. Now it stops earlier.

checking for g-wrap-config... no
configure: WARNING: g-wrap-config failed
configure: error:

   g-wrap does not appear to be installed correctly, or is not new
   enough.  GnuCash requires at least version 1.3.3 to build,
   and 1.9.6 to build cleanly with GCC4.  If you need to install g-wrap,
   you can find it at http://www.nongnu.org/g-wrap/ .

   Have I specified the PKG_CONFIG_PATH incorrectly; perhaps one subdirectory
too deep?

Thanks,

Rich
