I had to rebuild my Ubuntu from the ground up.  Now trying to build GnC 
5.15 and getting
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:381 (message):
   Neither guile 3.0, guile 2.2, nor guile 2.0 were found GnuCash can't run
   without one of them.  Ensure that one is installed and can be found with
   pkg-config.

However, doing sudo apt install guile-3.0 shows:
guile-3.0 is already the newest version (3.0.10+really3.0.10-5).
guile-3.0 set to manually installed.

whereis guile shows:
guile: /usr/bin/guile /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/guile /usr/share/guile 
/usr/share/man/man1/guile.1.gz

Why can't CMake find it?
