Thanks all for your assistance.  I learned a bit about using cmake and John and Colin allowed me to clean up the old files so I now have a functioning GC-3.2 on my frequently upgraded LM 19 without a fresh install.  Thanks again to all.  Mike

be very careful when you do this, for example if you accidentally put a space after the first / then you would delete the whole file system.  When I have to do such things I usually do
cd /usr/local/lib/gnucash
then double check I am in the right directory, then
sudo rm -rf .

      sudo rm -f /usr/local/lib/libgnc*
    clean your build directory and try again.

    /usr/local/bin/gnucash, but that seems to be an old 2.6.21 install
    that no longer works.  There is a working 2.6.21 in a
    $HOME/build-folder, but it doesn't show up.
