IMHO, any releases of g-wrap > 1.3.4 should use the gnome2/gtk2/glib2
interfaces. Gnucash only cares about glib; we don't use any gtk/gnome
interfaces directly from scheme.

Not yet. The g2 port is still underway. Once we get closer to
actually finishing we might actually have a better idea of what we're
going to depend on. At this point I suspect gnome-2.2, gtkhtml-3..
But we may wind up delayed enough that depending on gnome-2.4 is
reasonable. I don't know for sure.

Er, this should have read "gnucash's dependency on GUILE". Sorry.

Oh, great, so now I get to un-confuse people about the old guild-gnome
from the NEW guile-gnome?? *sighs*
