1.60 and Mandrake 8.0

[Eduardo Dominguez]

This problem is caused by Guppi, which uses python. Gnucash
doesnt use Python directly.
What I did, was to download Guppi source as tgz and compile it.
First, make sure you dont have a libguppi rpm installed.
When compiling Guppi, you will need to update lots of rpms,
all of which will be obvious when make fails and spits
an error saying a file or library is missing. What i did
was type the file name in rpmfind.net and i got
the corresponding rpm. 
Took me about 2 hours to get it running.

Good luck!
