At http://www.gnucash.org/en/required.phtml, there is a reference to Gnome XML with a link to http://xmlsoft.org/ At http://xmlsoft.org/, there is this: "Warning: unless you are forced to because your application links with a Gnome library requiring it, Do Not Use libxml1, use libxml2" The most recent libxml at ftp://ftp.gnome.org/ftp/mirror/gnome.org/stable/sources/libxml appears to be from July of 2000. There are around 30 releases of libxml2 since then, and no libxml releases. My guess is libxml2 is required for a current gnucash build. Of course, that's just a guess and I haven't gotten around to installing the bugger. Maybe tomorrow... Thanks for your help, Phillip.
