Comment 27 for bug 52486

Standing on the shoulders of giants... I got it to build with the attached control file, after building g-wrap, goffice, libgsf-1 but NOT dpkg-dev. The gnucash debian changelog makes it clear why the dpkg-dev version dependency was increased and I don't feel it matters for the purpose of backports, so I dropped the version number and reverted the other change.

The resulting gnucash debs (built from edgy source on edgy using prevu) seem to install fine on dapper and load my data file considerably faster than the similar version linked from the ubuntuforums thread.
