Hi John,

I'm trying to get direct downloads working from my bank/credit card 
companies.  In reading the info about GNUCash, I read that I need to 
--enable-hbci which further indicated I need libofx and AQBanking.  I'm 
researching sources as I found multiple repositories with libofx in it 
when I google libofx.
