OK, I feel rather silly.  I'm new to this group (I hope this is the right group
to be addressing this...), but I'm very interested in getting involved,
hopefully both in testing and developing (I'm not sure how much help I'll be in
the latter, but I'm willing to give it a shot).

I can't get the code to compile, though.  I downloaded the newest version
(gnucash-1.1.19), and I'm trying to get the gnome version up and running.  I've
read in the mailings that the gnome version may not be working, so I'm
wondering if this is even worth the effort.  I'd at least like to get it to
compile, though.  configure seemed to work ok, but I'm getting this error when
I compile:

make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/gnucash-1.1.19/src/gnome'

It doesn't even look like a gnucash problem, since the problem is with a gnome
.h file, but I've only seen this problem when compiling gnucash.  I used 'find'
to spot argp.h in the following location: 

/usr/local/lib/gnome-libs/include/argp.h

so it does exist.  What have I done wrong?  As far as I can tell, I've
installed gnome correctly according to www.gnome.org/start/gnometar.shtml.  Do
I need to set an environment variable or something?  Should I be directing this
question to the gnome group, or to a particular individual (and not the entire
gnucash-devel mailing group)?  Again, I'm really sorry about the newbie
question, but like I said, I would like to help in the gnucash effort.

Thanks for your help and patience.

PS I'm running a relatively vanilla Redhat 5.1 distribution on a PII machine,
if that matters.
