I'm going to do a trial build of Gnucash today with the latest proposed set of gtk patches to if everything works out. If it does, I'll put it up on Sourceforge for those who've already upgraded. Unfortunately I can't guarantee that it will be stable enough until folks have run it around the block a few times. Unless Gnucash is something you can do without for a week or two, you're better off staying on Snow Leopard until we know that Gtk apps are stable on Lion.

If you post a link to the updated version, I'll be happy to give it a try and let  you know if I find any issues.

Thanks,
