By comparison with linux/dselect, FINK does not upgrade just as often. This results into dead end situations like the one you described, which occur, I now realise, not only for gnucash but also for the other packages. We are, of course, talking about binary distribution. I am not going back to so

Suppose you own n activities, each of which requires a financial statement of its own. The Income in your own financial statement has an entry relative to each one of those activities, because you are the owner, and thus receive a monthly royalty. Is it possible to link the n+1 files so that your n

Installing gnucash via DarwinPorts requires space and time for compiling the source code of all the required libraries. True, the process is guided and automatic, but I just cannot afford re-building the world of linux under osx just to run gnucash under X11+GTK. Installing gnucash via Fink is mo

... I forgot to mention that the gnucash package at Fink has no maintainer, and the latest available version is 1.8: http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/nomaintainer.php This means that we *users*, at large, are unable to run the latest version on osx, unless you make the binary available. ;-) __

Derek, the reason for my plea is, that I'm having serious problems running the latest version on osx. You do not provide a binary in the website, compiling from source is sado-maso-exercise, and the fink project is still using gtk version 1. Do you think you can add a binary for osx in the websi
