I'm sorry for mailing like this, but somehow I managed to send email before I 
finished writing it. Dumb webmail.

Anyways, let's continue

GNUCash was configured with

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var 
--libexecdir=/usr/lib --enable-ofx --enable-dbi --enable-python-bindings

(Do note I have libdbi and libofx installed as well as python 2.7)

I use pcre 8.21 and hence there's no need for sed here. Alternatively, there 
isn't pcre 8.30 on their sourceforge page, so I guess it may not be ready just 
yet.

Also, I use libgsf-1.14.22, and indeed it doesn't provide -gnome library nor 
gconf schema files.

goffice version is 0.8.17, compiled without any problems.

I don't compile gnome according to book instructions but to my own. As I stated 
in some earlier mails, I don't like /etc/gnome/whatever ... I keep everything 
in /etc so that means I have /etc/gconf not /etc/gnome/whatever/gconf

Of course, I have also gnome deprecated packages which are necesary. Why do 
some people have such urge to remove them? There aren't that long obsoleted and 
also have been that much long there for many apps to use it. Porting away from 
it will take time. So, just keep it, they don't hurt. You keeped GTK+1 for a 
long time and you didn't complain, did you?

First, you welcome.

Anyways, I think I got gnucash to work with guile 2.0.5 ... (For some values of 
work)

I'm attaching patch here if anyone is willing to try it. Note: I am no 
programmer, I just put some online tips together.

I installed slib-3b3 according to archlinux PKGBUILD (yes, I use some kind 
packages), but gnucash configure failed because it couldn't find it. Then I 
looked on how configure checks it and I tried it manually (This all was done as 
normal user) and I got permission denied to write to guile catalogue.

Then I executed guile -c "(use-modules (ice-9 slib)) (require 'printf)" as root 
user which gnucash configure script does, and everything was ok.

GNUCash was configured with

Forgot:

1. Thank again Armin for the direction to this.

2. Added /opt/deadparrot/bin to the end of PATH.
