I vaguely remember building 2.0.5 or 2.2.0 myself.  I deleted the 
directory containing the sources long ago so using 'make uninstall' was 
not an option.  So I 'manually' uninstalled gnucash by trashing most of 
the files that came up under 'locate gnucash'.  After this, I 
reinstalled 2.2.1 through synaptic package manager.  Seems to be working 
fine now.  Thanks for the hint.
