<title>Introduction to GnuCash</title>

<para><application>GnuCash</application> is a personal finance
|
|
manager. The BLFS team is in the process of updating GnuCash
|
|
to version 2.x. This is a major change. Many of the dependency
|
|
packages for version 2.x are not compatible with the current
|
|
version. Some of these dependency packages have already been updated
|
|
which means these instructions are obsolete. Please see the stable
|
|
BLFS book for instructions to build GnuCash version 1.8.x.</para>
