I can see how Carol got this impression. The gnucash.org home page has no link "Getting Gnucash". There is only a "downloads" heading, and that only has source code options listed under it. If you were new to Linux, and hadn't grasped the whole package thing, you'd come to just the same conclusion that Carol has. It might be a good idea to have a page called "Get Gnucash" with some high-level installation instructions for common distros, and link that on the home page sidebar under the "downloads" heading. I'm not sure how the website is maintained, but I am happy to write draft copy for such a page if that helps.
