As a very first attempt, I had run (in this order) autogen.sh make make DESTDIR=<some local directory> install After which I could not run gnucash from that local directory. So immediatly after this attempt, I used ./autogen.sh --enable-ofx --enable-opt-style-install --prefix=/opt/gnucash which I copied litterally from README.cvs, followed by make make install But as I said, it won't run from there. Since your reply suggests it should, I have removed everthing, and started from scratch, this time avoiding the very first attempt (the one without parameters to autogen.sh, and using DESTDIR). Gnucash starts just fine now (indicating CVS version), so I suspect the DESTDIR construct caused something to get poorly configured.
