debian stretch upgrade has made gnucash unworkable

Fri Aug 11 14:16:26 EDT 2017

hi

i'm not sure what's wrong, but gnucash no longer starts up for me. i've 
attached the screen dump which may help someone smarter than me to 
figure out what's happened.

to reiterate, once i upgraded my debian installation to stretch i've had 
nothing from gnucash. i've tried uninstall and reinstalling ...

any help or pointers would be warmly welcomed.

danke
