I'm not quite sure what you mean by a mix of slink and potato... but I'm running a
system with the slink and potato archives in my apt source list and I've been able to
compile the motif version fine. I've been unable to get the gnome version working,
but I haven't spent much time looking for which packages I need.

I think your problem is that you don't have guile installed. g-wrap-guile uses the #!
convention for running itself using a different interpreter, in this case guile. When
the shell can't find that interpreter it spits out that your script doesn't exist.
Anyway, check and make sure you have guile installed. I have the following packages:
libguile4-dev
guile1.3
libguile4
Once I figure out exactly which packages are needed I think I might try to make a
gnucash-dev debian package that will grab the appropriate stuff. When I get time of
course... =)
Anyway, I hope that helps.
