    I'm trying to compile Gnotime 2.2.3 on OpenSuse 10.3.  It ends with this error about LIBQOF:

    checking for LIBQOF... configure: error: Package requirements (qof-1 >= 0.6.0) were not met:

    No package 'qof-1' found

    Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.

    Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBQOF_CFLAGS and LIBQOF_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
    See the pkg-config man page for more details.

    With previous versions of Gnotime and Suse I have always gotten lots of errors when compiling and it's always been resolved by installing some devel file, but can't find any kind of devel file that has anything to do with QOF.  Apparently QOF stands for Query Object Framework.  Gnucash apparently uses it, but I've installed Gnucash and that doesn't help either.

    I always dread upgrading to a new version of Suse because it's so impossible to compile Gnotime.

      You can find the QOF source code at http://qof.sourceforge.net/
      It should not be difficult to build it for your OpenSUSE system,
      since there are .spec files included with the source code.
