Consequently the Gnucash-2.5.3 tarballs do not work with Guile-2.0. If you need Guile-2.0 support you will have to build Gnucash-2.5.3 from the repo after installing Swig-2.0.10 on your system

Yes, overlooked that bit when I copied over the "News" file. I've pushed a change, mostly so that I won't repeat it next time. I haven't installed Swing-2.0.10 on my Linux VMs, so it's still true that the tarballs won't work with Guile2.
