Are you sure? Because I can't find it:
http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gnucash.html

Debian doesn't even have 2.0.3, and I had to roll my own (which was 
trivially easy BTW).

If you want to compile it yourself do this:

cd to some working directory (I suggest /usr/local/src/)

apt-get build-dep gnucash
apt-get source gnucash
wget http://www.gnucash.org/pub/gnucash/sources/stable/gnucash-2.0.4.tar.gz
mv gnucash-2.0.4.tar.gz gnucash_2.0.4.orig.tar.gz
tar xzf gnucash_2.0.4.orig.tar.gz
cp -R gnucash-2.0.2/debian/ gnucash-2.0.4/
cd gnucash-2.0.4
dch -v 2.0.4 "New upstream release."
debuild
cd ..

Then install the .deb's that are created:
dpkg -i gnucash_2.0.4_i386.deb gnucash-common_2.0.4_all.deb

Note that it compiled without errors, but I haven't actually installed it 
yet (still on 2.0.3 for now).

However assuming no new files (scheme code, etc) were included with 2.0.4 
vs 2.0.2 it will work fine.
