Installing help on MacOSX - can't resolve dependency?

Hello,

I've just recently switched to using a Mac, and would like to use gnucash.
At some point, I may be installing Windows too, but I'd really prefer it if
I can get this running on the Mac side.  I hope there is something really
obvious I'm missing, but neither a google search, nor searching the list
archives has taken me anywhere.

I've been following the install instructions at
http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/MacOSXInstallation .  I am on an Intel Mac,
running OS 10.5, trying to install the 2.x version of gnucash (I noticed
that the most recent is 2.2.7, but the most recent Fink sees is 2.2.5,
despite asking it to update, and to look for unstable builds).  I've been
working with the Fink Commander install method (noted as functional as of
Nov. 08), and am getting the following error after choosing Soure > Install:


> Can't resolve dependency "gnome-keyring-dev (>= 2.24.1-1)" for package
> "libgoffice-0.6-0.6.5-3" (no matching packages/versions found)
> Exiting with failure.


I do see that it has an earlier version of gnome-keyring-dev listed, and
again, asking fink to update does not improve this.

If anyone can point me in the right direction on how to resolve this, I'd be
very grateful!
Thanks,
Kaia
