says that the report interface is basically undocumented, but its not
that hard to figure out from reading the existing reports. yes scheme is
required. If you have real trouble you might ask on -devel, but you're
best bet is take a stab at it using the existing reports. Also, if you
know specifically what you want, you might post a request up here as
several of us can probably put together a report for you.

latest version in packages.debian.org is 1.8.10
you'll have to build you're own 1.8.12. instructions for that have
changed lately due to the migration to svn. I think what you need is:
svn checkout http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/tags/1.8.12 gnucash
where the final "gnucash" is the directory to place the source tree in.
then
cd gnucash
./autogen.sh --enable-opt-style-install --prefix=/opt/gnucash <there
are many options here, this is what I use... check the README's in gnucash/>
make
sudo make install
also, if you've not built gnucash before you probably need at least
apt-get build-dep gnucash
and maybe more depending on what that pulls down for you. autgen.sh will
warn you of missing things.
good luck.
