I'm using Debian "potato" (a pre-release of 2.2).  I got the latest
gnucash sources from CVS, and did `configure'.  It emitted this
warning:

    checking for gtk_xmhtml_new in -lgtkxmhtml... no

    configure: warning: Cannotfind libgtkxmhtml -- gnome build
    disabled (not required for motif)

This is happening because I'm missing libXpm.so -- in config.log I
see

configure:3961: checking for XpmReadFileToXpmImage in -lXpm
...
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXpm

but later in the file, configure checks for  gtk_xmhtml_new in
-lgtkxmhtml, and in doing so, attempts to link against libXpm.so,
which of course fails.  configure apparently misinterprets this
failure as an indication that libgtkxmhtml is missing, even though I
indeed have that library.

If I install the Debian package that provides libXpm.so, however, and
then do `make distclean; configure; make gnome', everything works
flawlessly.
