Nope... You should never use what you find from rpmfind.
You should grab hbci from gnucash.org as well.

Where did you get gtkhtml-1.1?  It's not distributed with RH8.  Did
you do something stupid^H^H^H^H^H^Hsilly like use redcarpet?  The RPMS
are built against the RH8-distributed RPMS, and you don't have it.
Revert back to gtkhtml-1.0.4-3 which is distributed with RH8.
