I was starting to come round to the idea of putting guile-1.8.8 in the book (and slib-3b3) but then when I found gnucash needed: gnome-mime-data, gnome-vfs, libIDL, ORBit2, libbonobo, libgnome, libart_lgpl, libgnomecanvas, libbonoboui, libgnomeui and an older version of goffice... No, no thanks. I'd like this legacy stuff to go.
