Doug,

I'm glad the PCLinuxOS maintainers have managed to get gnucash 2.6.x up and running on 
your favourite distro.

It's unfortunate they didn't contact us earlier when they ran into trouble. We won't be able to 
fix all distro specific packaging issues. However in this case we could have lifted the confusion 
early on about the minimum guile version requirement. That would have avoided a lot of 
frustration from the maintainers.

Regards,

Geert
