What worked for me (also with Mandrake 7.0) was:
1. create a symlink /usr/lib/libguile.so.4 to libguile.so.6
2. install g-wrap-0.9.1-1.i386.rpm with --nodeps
3. install swig1.1p5.tar.gz:
./configure
make
make runtime
make install
4. install gnucash-1.4.0.tar.gz:
./configure
make
make install
Since then someone said that given #2, #3 is not necessary. Also I'm
not sure if #1 is necessary. I chose to install gnucash from source
for greater peace of mind, and just in case I got inclined to mess with
it later. :-)
