Upgrade to 2.4.5

[Cristian Marchi]

I'm also with Ubuntu 10.10 and I had problems installing the updated deb 
from getdeb. I solved the problem by uninstalling the GnuCash and 
GnuCash-common packages from the Software Center, then downloading the 
updated packages from [1] (browse to the end of the page and search for 
Ubuntu 10.10) and manually installing them (double click on the deb 
file: first the GnuCash-common package then the actual GnuCash).

I think the problem resides in the GnuCash-common package as it can't be 
upgraded but it has to be reinstalled (don't know why).
