Just noticed that `otool` is reporting that `libdbdpgsql.so` under /Applications/Guncash.app is depending on `libdbi` and `libpq` that live under the `gnucash` user home directory (i.e. that were built along with libdbdpgsql. That may explain the failure to load the shared library (as the user I ran Gnucash as does not have access to the gnucash user home directory). However, I tried running it as root as well, and still get the same error message.
