Re: suse rpm
Never mind. The installation from rpm appears to actually run, despite the ldconfig problems noted. I also forgot to use -U, so the old version wasn't deleted but that's pilot error.

Re: suse rpm
I'm running Suse 6.4, upgraded from 6.3. I tried installing g-wrap from the rpm, but rpm complains that we need 'guile-devel'. I have guile 1.3.4. I can't find guile-devel as an independent entity. Any suggestions? TIA PS - I'm going to be at the O'Reilly Open Source conference in Monterey next week. Anybody else? I'll be staying at the Hyatt (yeah, yeah, tough life - paying for it will be!!) Is there a GNUcash Birds of a Feather? - Gimme a call at the hotel, I don't know what room. I'm registered (or will be) as Gary Bickford. I'm mainly there to learn about the Apache XML stuff.

I am using SuSE 6.3 and all of them are on the CD's except g-wrap. Just download g-wrap from ftp.gnucash.org and install it. These packages can all be installed using Yast; you'll find them in the `d' series (development) packages. All except gnlibsd, that one is in gnm (the GNOME series). If you are not using Yast or don't have the CD's you can find the rpm's on the SuSE web site and download them. You can then use rpm to install. Once these are installed you should have most of the dependencies satisfied. But maybe not all. You may still find that specific files are not present but required by GnuCash. For example, I needed libjpeg.so.62 but it is not to be found on SuSE 6.3 (maybe on 6.4?). This file is included in the libjpeg-6b-9 package. You can find it and download from just about any of the rpm mirror sites. Try the GnuCash rpm again after satifying the dependencies. I haven't used the SuSE rpm but had many of the issues to resolve with the tar.gz. On Tue, 04 Jul 2000, Gary Bickford wrote: Rolando Roman wrote: someone promised a sus rpm is it avail?
