Nope, that's right.  If RH, Debian, SuSE, etc. can't figure out the 
dependancies and it breaks a package install, it's their problem, not 
that of the developers who have clearly listed all the dependancies 
in their documentation and source code.

Btw, I've been using GnuCash since the Xacc days and love it more and 
more with each release.  Thanks for such a great job everyone!
(as I eagerly await 1.8.0 :)
