Hi,

(I am not sure which list this should go to - I am hoping someone on 
either list will assist me!)\


I was running Gnucash 2.2.4, but I decided to upgrade to GnuCash 2.2.7.
I have Ubuntu Hardy Heron (8.04).
I used be be quite technical - but have got rusty! So I need some help!

I downloaded the source file (gnucash-2.2.7.tar.bz2), and unpacked it 
successfully.

The procedure to build this version is to run the configure script, then 
run 'make', and finally 'make install'.

I ran the configure, and it took me a couple of hours to get all the 
packages that I needed, but now I can get a clean, full run of configure.
(it exits with a 0).

Then I do a make - it churns for about 3 minutes, and then I get the 
following messages.  (I have deleted the top 500 lines, that all worked 
successfully).

I have no idea what to do next - please can you help:

To me it looks like the linker can't find the 'g_poll' or 
'g_set_error_literal' routines.
Nor can I!

Can anyone help?

Thanks
