I downloaded the rpm version and ran Kpackage on it. I didn't install it because Kpackage said there were missing dependencies, and I didn't want to go running off looking for secondary packages requiring specific version numbers,etc... I've played that pain-in-the-neck game before and I'm not playing it again. GNUcash could further it's cause significantly by releasing rpm's and tar's that are COMPLETE, i.e., containing all necessary auxilliary programs of the right versions. Static or shared, it shouldn't matter. If an additional programs, besides GNUcash itself, are needed to run GNUcash then those programs should be in the release. Can I make it any clearer? Anything less is going to turn off a lot of folks and hinder the spread of othewise good Linux apps. MoneyDance had this problem of requiring folks to go fetch other software and install it before MoneyDance could be installed. Sean and I danced around on this issue. I watched it for nearly a year. I now use MoneyDance because the installation includes EVERTHING needed to run it. Including EVERYTHING is the only way to release an app, IMO. JLK NeoFax wrote:

For all those individuals that have been asking about GNUCash. The new version works fine. Just read the README about SuSE 6.3 and make gnome.
