Sorry, I didn't state the issue properly. The distribution/release I'm using is Ubuntu Dapper. Though based on Debian there are differences in the way Ubuntu names some packages. Also it looks like some packages use a different versioning scheme. Some of the pkgs required by Debian's Gnucash 2 are these. For years I had been using Debian unstable and then started mixing in Ubuntu packages that were missing from Debian or newer. It just got to be too messy so I decided on just Ubuntu (I like Debian, a tough decision). I'd rather not get drift back into that situation. This is what I get from dpkg trying to install Debian's gnucash: Selecting previously deselected package gnucash-common. (Reading database ... 148585 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking gnucash-common (from gnucash-common_1.9.7-1_all.deb) ... Selecting previously deselected package gnucash. Unpacking gnucash (from gnucash_1.9.7-1_powerpc.deb) ...
