I am trying to install gnucash-2.0.1 on my machine running Zenwalk 2.8.  
Since I don't have a full gnome environment, I have installed the 
following dependencies:

libofx-0.8.0
guile-1.8.0
g-wrap-1.9.6
slib-3a3-2
gwenhywfar-2.4.0

I tried to configure aqbanking-2.2.0, but I get the following:

    .
    .
    .
    configure: WARNING:
     QT3 is not explicitly disabled and I could not find some QT3 components
     (see which are missing in messages above).

    "--disable-qt3".

    --with-frontends="cbanking g2banking qbanking" to build aqbanking
    without that frontend.
    configure: error: *** Requirements not fulfilled. Fix your
    requirements or change the configuration.

As you can tell from above, I have installed libofx-0.8.0.  Here is 
where it is located on my machine:

    /usr/lib/libofx.so
    /usr/lib/libofx.la
    /usr/lib/libofx.a
    /usr/lib/libofx.so.2.0.0
    /usr/lib/libofx.so.2

_Do I really need Libchipcard2-client, QT3 and KDE3 ?_


Also, I tried to compile gnucash-2.0.1 without aqbanking and here is 
what I got:

    .
    .
    .
    checking for guile - 1.8.0 <= version < 99.99.99... yes: 1.8.0
    checking for g-wrap-config... /usr/local/bin/g-wrap-config

    checking for g-wrap compile args... Package g-wrap-2.0-guile was not

    Perhaps you should add the directory containing `g-wrap-2.0-guile.pc'
    to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
    No package 'g-wrap-2.0-guile' found

    checking for g-wrap link args... Package g-wrap-2.0-guile was not

    Perhaps you should add the directory containing `g-wrap-2.0-guile.pc'

    checking for SLIB support... configure: error:

       Cannot find SLIB.  Are you sure you have it installed?
       See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=347922

Here is where g-wrap-2.0-guile.pc is at on my machine:

    /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/g-wrap-2.0-guile.pc
    /usr/local/g-wrap-1.9.6/guile/g-wrap-2.0-guile.pc

As you see at the top, I have installed slib-3a3-2.  There are many 
files, I don't know which one it is looking for.

_Does anyone have any suggestions to get gnucash up and running under 
Zenwalk?_

I really need gnucash working so I can enter the last 2 months of data.  
(I have almost 22 years of data entered using pre-2.0 gnucash.)
