installation on mac osx 10.4.10

[David Reiser]

It's a bug introduced between 2.2.0 and 2.2.1 affecting Macs. Has  
been fixed for the 2.2.2. The splash screen is a modal dialog that  
prevents any other dialog from appearing. The splash screen is  
released just before the accounts window opens. But on first run, a  
dialog asking if you want to run the account setup wizard should  
appear. After crashes, a warning dialog should appear asking if  
you're sure you want to continue is displayed. Since these special  
case dialogs can't be written until the splash screen goes away,  
gnucash just sits and waits.

Start up the first time (and after any crash) using 'gnucash -- 
nofile' and use the File menu to open your file.
