Package: gnucash
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Trying to install gnucash, from the latest unstable on
http://debian.csail.mit.edu/debian-amd64/debian/. apt-get fails with two
dependencies, slib and guile-1.6. Installing one of them causes the
other one to be uninstalled. A transcript from installation attempt
follows:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
gnucash: Depends: slib (>= 3a1-2) but it is not going to be installed
         Depends: guile-1.6-slib but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
