Package: gnucash
Version: 1.8.8-7
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Using synaptic, I tried to install gnucash. 

When I mark gnucash to be installed, I get:
gnucash:
 Hängt ab: gnucash-common but it is not going to be installed
        Hängt ab: libltdl3 but 1.5.2-1 is to be installed

When I mark gnucash-common to be installed, I get:
gnucash-common:
                Hängt ab: gnucash but it is not going to be installed

When I mark both, the result is the same.

Using apt-get to install gnucash, I get the same cross-dependency, but 
more information regarding libltdl3:
Hängt ab: libltdl3 (>= 1.5.2-2) aber 1.5.2-1 soll installiert werden
(depends: libltdl3 (>= 1.5.2-2) but 1.5.2-1 is to be installed)

This conflicts with the System Information below, which lists libltdl3 
1.5.2-1 as dependency.

Apart from the bug itself, which may possibliy resolved by waiting for 
libltdl3 1.5.2-2 to be included in Debian unstable in the future, what 
can on do now? Thank you for any possible help!
