RHEL5 should have most of the dependencies already..  For those
others that don't exist on RHEL5 I would just rebuild from SRPM.
Whether you choose the FC6 or F7 SRPM is up to you.

Maybe.  Maybe not.  The version number is important.

You're probably misunderstanding something.  Yes, this is GtkHTML.

No, they are no the same.

You're probably misunderstanding something.

If you intend to compile gnucash from source, then yes.
