Hi again, I figured out that the problem is that I am missing 'version.texi' from that directory. The file that includes it, gnucash-design.texinfo, states in a comment that configure was supposed to create it for me. Is that true? In the meantime, I created it with 'touch', and let things continue. The resulting .info file seems fine, but maybe I'm missing something. Let me know if there's anything else I should do. I apologize if this was in the list archives or documents, somewhere. Now that I know what was missing I'll go back and search again. thanks, Olaf > Hi, > > This is the first time I've attempted to build gnucash > in several months, and I'm doing it on a system that > has been loaded from scratch, so my environment may > well be missing something.
