I'm not sure what the output of ldd is saying (the ld man page is amazingly unhelpful, a reminder of the bad old 4.1BSD days on overloaded Vax 780s, where we joked "it was hard to build, it ought to be hard to use"), but I'm guessing that it's saying that the dynamic loading of libgnc-qof.so.1 is going to come from /usr/lib64/libgnc-qof.so.1, which is there courtesy the Slackware 2.2.9 package that is installed. If I'm right, that's the wrong version of that library. I suspect that having 2.2.9 installed has confused things. Does this sound plausible or am I tilting at windmills? If I'm right, then I should remove the 2.2.9 package and re-link? /Don >> Regards, >> John Ralls >> >> > _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
