I gave up after having to find, download and build 12 dependent libraries on my RedHat Enterprise #4 box.
Seriously, get yourself a windows machine ;-) Although the majority of the devs are using Linux, for some reason nothing can beat the windows environment when it comes to compiling easily. You'll only have to download the bundled set of libraries and off you go!
More realistically, can't you use a recent fedora install, either parallel boot or virtualized? I guess it's just a matter of Red Hat 4 being out of date, and us devs using very recent libraries. You will only need this:
sudo yum install ImageMagick-c++-devel ImageMagick-c++ ImageMagick-devel ImageMagick glibmm24-devel libsigc++-devel gtkmm24-devel glibmm24 libsigc++ gtkmm24 intltool gc gc-devel lcms lcms-devel gsl gsl-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel boost-devel popt-static poppler-devel inkscape
You're out of control. I rest my case. :-)
Now it sounds like mor than a documentation issue. It sounds more like gnucash. I'm using Debian, and just use whatever inkscape and gnucash comes with the distro, whether I like it or not.
