Thank you.

I had autoconf and automake installed.  I installed libtool.  This got
me a little farther.  But what I really needed to do was run
./autogen.sh.

So now I've successfully run:

./configure
make

But so far as I can tell, I have not yet produced an executable ledger
2.6.3.

I expect running "make install" would produce an executable ledger
2.6.3, but I haven't dared to do this because I don't want to destroy my
currently working ledger 3.1.1.

For some time, I will have to repeatedly import GnuCash files and use
ledger 3.1.1 to generate reports.

I don't want the 2.6.3 emacs related files at all.  I believe what I
want is exactly two 2.6.3 files:

/usr/bin/ledger

and

either
/usr/lib/ledger/libledger.so.2
        if /usr/lib/ledger.so is not an ELF
or
/usr/lib/ledger/libledger.so
        If this is an ELF

Is there a reasonable way to generate these files without destroying my
current ledger 3.1.1 installation?

If not, can I install 2.6.3, copy the files I want to a safe place, and
then re-install 3.1.1?

I noticed that the make file contains a lot of uninstall code.  Is this
known to work?  Should I uninstall 2.6.3?

Is there any way to run 2.6.3 and 3.1.1 on the same operating system?
How do I make the ledger 2.6.3 use the 2.6.3 version of libledger,
instead of the installed 3.1.1 libledger?

I hope this isn't too many questions at once.
