I tried installing the new 2.5.0 from the .dmg. I did the install on a machine that had had 2.4.x on it, but I don't remember doing anything other than maybe launching it once.

The new version notified me that it couldn't find the defaults. When it gave me the second (?) dialog, I selected the option to let gnucash copy the defaults to my home directory. Trying to advance from that point produced an error dialog about there being no update-gnucash-gconf.

If I try to skip setting up defaults, gnucash drops into spinning rainbow pizza of death mode.
