I disagree most strenuously. Up until this version, gnucash worked *fine*
without gconf; now, I can't pull gnucash up on a remote display at all
because of this bletcherous dependency. I think this is a grave bug in
gtkhtml, and I don't think this version of gnucash should be allowed into
testing until this problem is resolved.

Requiring users to run -- or mock-up -- a GNOME 1.2 environment to run
gnucash just is not reasonable given that gnucash is already the last GNOME
1.2 app standing.

Thanks,
