Gnucash in sid is _much_ newer.  I've been using it for quite a while
with no problems (1.6.1-4).

Well, that version is the same as in potato.  There are _lots_ of
dependencies to include, and not all of them are in woody.  It is much
easier to install it via apt than to download each package by hand.
