well, I found some modern deb sources -(a)- and still couldn't apt-get 
gnucash. So I went to the website and installed the tar file. After unzipping 
and typing in ./configure it runs for a bit and then says:

	checking for GLIB - version >= 0.99.7... no
	*** The glib-config script installed by GLIB could not be found
	*** If GLIB was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
	*** your path, or set the GLIB_CONFIG environment variable to the
	*** full path to glib-config.
	configure: error: Cannot find glib. Check config.log
	bmike1@4[gnucash-1.8.3]$          

I then tried to apt-get glib and GLIB.... to no avail. Then I tried to dselect 
it and then dpkg it but both of those  failed in process as well. So I must 
ask.... How should I go about installing glib with the ultimate outcome being 
a working install of gnucash?
