Perhaps the gnucash dependency on g-wrap should only be a build-dependency? The description of g-wrap doesn't look like it is obviously something that gnucash needs at runtime: Package: g-wrap Description: scripting interface generator for C A tool (and Guile library) for generating function wrappers for inter-language calls. It currently only supports generating Guile wrappers for C functions. . G-Wrap takes a set of interface declarations (written in Scheme) and wraps the described interface for Guile. Perhaps gnucash only needs the libgwrap-runtime0 run-time dependency? /Simon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
