Rolando,
I had a very similar problem installing under Mandrake 7.0. Identical
complaints, in fact.
The solution that let me run was to plant soft links (ln -s) for libguile.so.4
and libreadline.so.3 in /usr/lib, and then turn off dependancy checking when
installing the RPM for GnuCash. The "real" libraries I actually have on my
system are libguile.so.6.0.0 and libreadline.so.4.1, respectively. So far,
I haven't had any problems with GnuCash that can't be traced to "user error".
:-)
Mandrake allows use of the "kpackage" GUI for loading RPMs, and there's a
button to disable the dependancy checking. I'm sorry, I don't know what the
command line switch is, since I've never loaded an RPM from the command line.
Anyway, it's worth a try -- though I'd tinker a bit trying whatever you think
is important to you prior to entering a lot of data, just in case it doesn't
work for you.
