I was surprised to see anyone mention the PPA since it hasn't had any
activity for YEARS... apparently until someone uploaded 2.4.3 on
3/1/11. If anyone knows what the "GnuCash Packaging Team's" intentions
are, maybe we can update the information at
http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Ubuntu -- personally I wouldn't want to
point anyone to the PPA if it's inferior to Getdeb.

GetDeb.net has already updated to 2.4.4.
