PLEASE CC GNUCASH-DEVEL ON ALL REPLIES...

On SuSE 9.1 -- just install the RPM. SuSE ships with gnucash. Use it.
That's the first place I checked; SuSE does _not_ ship with GNUCash,
at least
not with the SuSE 9.1 CDs I purchased. in fact it doesn't even ship with a c
compiler - only the c pre-processor. I tried the only RPM versions available
on the GNUCash site and its mirror sites, but the latest version for either
SuSE or Solaris is 1.1.10, which would not install properly.
Suse most certainly ships with gnucash. It also most certainly ships
with a compiler.
So, I'm sorry you're having such a hard time. But if you can't even get
a compiler working, well, there's very little anyone on this list can
do to help you.
So GNUCash is not for mere mortals like me who lack a sufficiently pointy hat
to even compile a c compiler? I think I'll have better results, and avoid
these kinds of egotistical comments I find on the lists by working out the
problem myself.
The gnucash-devel list is not for "mere mortals like [you] who lack a
sufficiently pointy hat". That's what the gnucash-user list is for.
gnucash-devel is for DEVELOPERS. So, yes, on this list you are most
certainly expected to be able to install a compiler yourself...
ESPECIALLY when your distribution ships with one! As for solaris,
have you ever tried www.sunfreeware.com? You can get pre-built binaries
of gcc there....

PS: in the future, PLEASE REPLY TO THE LIST!
