No, you are certainly not stupid. Compiling GnuCash from source can
be challenging, particularly as the distributions do not
contain the necessary prerequisites yet.
For instance, have a look at http://lwn.net this week. The head
writer there can't get it to work, and he's been writing about
Linux for years.
As to your specific difficulty,
I'm not absolutely sure here, but I think that your problem is that
the version of gal you have is probably too old, you need
a newer one.
