Whoever authorized Helixcode to distribute gnucash should give them a
round bitching out! (well, it's GPL, but still...).  Helixcode failed to
include the necessary files to make gnc-prices work, and I'm not sure
what else they broke.  I submitted the attached file as a bug report to
Helixcode.  Those people may know how to open a text editor and write
some good C or whatever, but they suck ass when it comes to making
decent binary packages and at project management.
