Have you looked at the Debian Bug Tracking System? There are, in fact, bugs against both gnucash (184683) and libgwrapguile1 (184681) about this. (http://bugs.debian.org/) Poking around suggests that the actual bug involves (use-modules (g-wrap gw-wct)) in /usr/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/main.scm, which probably causes Guile to try to load libgw-wct.so as a dynamically loaded module; thus, libgw-wct.so doesn't show up as a direct dependency of gnucash, but libgwrapguile1 doesn't provide the .so link since this generally isn't done for real library packages.
I just did a fresh sid install of gnucash
After applying the fixes from the bts (first I just created the symlinks per 184845, then installed all of libgwrapguile-dev per 184681/184683) I can start the application by cancelling out of the initial popup box, or selecting "create a new account". If I select the "View new user documentation" option however, or enter the app & then select the tutorial documentation from the "Help" menu, a little "help topics" window pops up for a second, and it all crashes with this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gnucash Backtrace: In unknown file: ?: 0* [gnc:find-doc-file "help-search-index.db"] ?: 1* [gnc:find-localized-file "help-search-index.db" #] ?: 2 (letrec ((locale-prefixes #)) (letrec (#) (loop # base-directories))) ... ?: 3 [loop ...

I think I get the gist of David's message, but I can't tell if this is
whole new bug, a little drek leftover from the old bug, or some other problem specific to me (locales again?)
Does anybody else experience this?
thanks, Kenneth
