Those are installation directories which are the result of you building Gnucash yourself with prefix set to ~/Library/Gnucash-2.2.9 and ~/Library/Gnucash-2.3.x . They're bigger than the bundle because there are a lot of extra files that are needed to build everything that aren't needed to run Gnucash. So the hard-coded path is in config.user? That's annoying. I guess I need to run sed on it as part of the migration script.
