gsf and gsf-gnome are certainly required..  They are used by libgoffice,
which is the graphing library we use.  You'll definitely need those.
I don't know why it's trying to pull in libdbus or gnutls.  Those must
be indirect dependencies.  As for the version numbers on other packages...
Don't know what to tell you.

Perhaps you should "apt-get build-dep gnucash" (against the 1.9 version)
and then rebuild the debian package from the debian source?

Hopefully Thomas will respond to your list.
