You are correct again :-). Here's the dependencies:

- To build gnucash without --enable-aqbanking, none of aqbanking or its 
dependencies is needed.

- To build gnucash with --enable-aqbanking, an installation of the aqbanking 
development files (libaqbanking-dev) and gwenhywfar development files 
(libgwenhywfar-dev) is needed, but none of the additional aqbanking build 
requirements. However I think libaqbanking-dev has some additional 
requirements on other -dev packages, probably libgmp-dev and libgnutls-dev

- To build libaqbanking itself (and only then), the full build-dep 
libaqbanking are needed.
