Thanks for directing me to https://www.lufthans.com/unix/docs/HOWTO/
cafod.txt . There I was instructed how to fix the MMap error but I have a 
question. It was apt-getting gnucash stablebut I think I remember reading 
that if you apt-get a stable file onto an unstable system it will mess up the 
libraries. What's the deal guys; is my memory not right?
