   That's what I thought. When I downloaded gnucash, I thought that I saw the
avahi package also came accross. Well, I got that, then found other
dependencies that were not automagically resolved.

   I did this.

   OK. Where it's now hung up is:

** (process:26272): WARNING **: Failed to dlopen()
'/usr/lib/gnucash/libgncmod-ofx.la': libofx.so.2: cannot open shared object
file: No such file or directory

gnucash: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/./libgncqof.so.1: undefined symbol:
g_slice_alloc

   There's an libgncmod-ofx.so, but not a static library.

   Apparently, the freerock gnucash package includes all the on-line banking
libraries. I use none of them, but cannot control that. So, I guess that I'm
back to building from the source tarball and working out the dependencies
one-by-one using slapt-get.

Thanks for the help,

Rich
