Hi Geert, Pulled master and tried to build using autotoosls. As per your suggestion, I built in ../build_gnucash which is parallel to the top-level gnucash directory.
make succeeded. make install succeeded as well. make check failed with 3 tests - error message below. Is this a known problem? I haven't tried building using cmake. My system configuration is also below (Fedora 26).
