Umm, no, you have not. And it's a lot less than you fear, starting from a 
normal base install of Gnome on a modern GNU system.

That would be because it's gnome-config - case is important!

Search for gnome-config - the Debian site is a good start, Packages section.

usr/bin/gnome-config	    libdevel/libgnome-dev

You need development versions of all the packages required for GnuCash - the 
ordinary binary packages are NOT sufficient. libgnome is not the same as 
libgnome-dev.

Ubuntu will have something equivalent - it may well use the same package 
names.
