gtkhtml-3 is a gnome2 library, not a gnome-1.4 library. GnuCash 1.8 is still gnome-1.4, so it cannot use gtkhtml > 1.x.
The most recent gtkhtml it can use it 1.1. The message was written long before 1.1 was released, and certainly well before gnome decided to make the leap from 1.x to 2.x breaking compatibility along the way. The message has never been changed. The only real bug in the gnucash configure is that it looks for gtkhtml 1.0 before it looks for gtkhtml 1.1 -- so if you have BOTH installed it will build against 1.0 and not 1.1. -derek Thomas Bushnell BSG <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > See bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84707. > > The most recent stable version of gtkhtml is 3.0.10.
