While this will allow your new build to complete it will not remove all traces 
of the original gnucash installation in that location.

Whether or not you would want to do that is up to you of course. The only way 
I know to clean up properly (barring a manual search for all gnucash related 
files) is to download the 2.6.21 sources again, run at least autogen.sh and 
configure (with default prefix, which is "/usr/local" on linux) and then run
sudo make uninstall

That should get rid of all files that were installed by your previous 2.6 
build.

Then (epending on where you chose to install gnucash 3.x), you may need to 
rerun make install from the gnucash 3.x build directory again after that.

Regards,

Geert
