Compile Guncash

[Dennis Powless]

I am having trouble installing Gnucash 2.6.5 in ubuntu 14.04 LTS

I downloaded the tar.bz2 file and extracted it to a folder Gnucash on the
desktop.

I then opened terminal and cd to that folder and the gnucash-2.6.5 folder

I then ran the code in terminal
./configure

then I entered
make
nothing

then I entered

sudo make install

I get an error of sorts about the target etc... and not sure what it means.

I did the same thing and used checkinstall no different

How do I install gnucash 2.6.5 triend the other option and it was the 2.6.1

Thanks,

Dennis
