If you built from source using 'fink install gnucash2', then you can  
'fink rebuild gnucash2' to have fink check that all the dependencies  
are there. If you built gnucash by hand using fink to supply all the  
dependencies, then the gory list of dependencies is:

BuildDepends: <<
   aqbanking16, atk1, audiofile, bzip2-dev, esound,
   gail17-dev, gconf2-dev, gettext-tools, glib2-dev ( >= 2.12.7 ),  
gnome-keyring-dev,
   gnome-vfs2-unified-dev, gtk+2-dev, gtkhtml3.8.15-dev,
   guile16-dev, gwenhywfar38, ktoblzcheck, libart2, libbonobo2-dev,  
libbonoboui2-dev,
   libgettext3-dev, libglade2, libgnome2-dev, libgnomecanvas2-dev,
   libgnomeprint2.2-dev, libgnomeprintui2.2-dev, libgnomeui2-dev,  
libgoffice,
   libgsf1.114-dev, libgsf1.114-gnome-dev, libhowl-dev, libhowl- 
shlibs, libiconv-bin,
   libiconv-dev, libjpeg, libofx3, libtool14, libxml2, opensp4-dev,  
orbit2-dev,
   pango1-xft2-dev, pkgconfig, popt, system-openssl-dev, x11-dev, xml- 
parser-pm586
<<

and

   Depends: <<
   aqbanking16-shlibs, atk1-shlibs, audiofile-shlibs, bzip2-shlibs,
   esound-shlibs, gail17-shlibs, gconf2-shlibs,
   glib2-shlibs ( >= 2.12.7 ), gnome-keyring-shlibs, gnome-vfs2-

With all the dependencies in place, I can successfully build from the  
unpacked tarball using:

guile16-build env LIBRARY_PATH=/sw/lib CPATH=/sw/include ./configure  
--enable-error-on-warning --enable-compile-warnings --enable-opt- 
style-install --prefix=/some/path --enable-debug --enable-etags -- 
enable-doxygen --enable-ofx  --enable-hbci
guile16-build env LIBRARY_PATH=/sw/lib CPATH=/sw/include make
make install

gnucash 2.1.3 runs for me on a ppc mac when built this way.

I am, however, having cross-talk issues with one of Apple's libraries  
and a similarly named fink lib when I try to install 2.1.3 using a  
modified gnucash2.info file (which I have to get working before fink  
can release 2.2).
