FWIW, my copy of SuSE 7.2 (English) doesn't have a 'scheme' package in
series 'd' (or anywhere for that matter).  I ended up searching the
SuSE website for scheme, and found a package in updates to 7.0, in
order to get the GnuCash RPM in their 7.2 German updates to work.

(Anyway, it does work now, but I think I would compile from source or
install Debian before chasing the dependencies for that RPM again ;-)
