Hi

Downloaded the Mac OS/X version from 
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/gnucash/Gnucash-2.2.9.dmg.

Installed fine, with no complaints, would not startup and in the error 
log it reported:

Link (dyld) error:

Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib
  Referenced from:

  Reason: Incompatible library version: GnuCash-bin requires version 
7.0.0 or later, but libiconv.2.dylib provides version 5.0.0

The version of libiconv that I have is 1.12-3 (Fink). Snooped around and 
found the following post: 
http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/archive/macosx-dev/2008-February/060928.html 
that describes a similar problem and indicates it is generic to apps 
built on Leopard with Tiger compatibility.

Has anyone successfully run the version from SourceForge on Tiger/Intel? 
Any suggestions?

Thanks
Dani
