I have been using GnuCash for a few years now and am finding it sad to hear the dev community of this project is at a dismal. I do hope to see it pick up too.

I don't do any sort of stocks or online trading but find GnuCash to fill my needs coming from Quicken 2000 era. My biggest difficulty was finding something to import my data. I finally gave up and started from scratch and have been happy ever since.

The only problem I have had is fulfilling all the dependencies to get it installed as for some reason I can never find one or two needed bin packages and am forced to roll them myself. So yes I am finding difficulty with modern distros fulfilling all deps most likely due to the Gnome2 issue.

Setting up a regular small financial transaction transfering a few bucks to a capable GnuCash developer or a relevant organisation might help as good example.
