Log Message:
Update to 2.4.0:

The GnuCash development team proudly announces GnuCash 2.4.0, the
latest stable release of the GnuCash Free Accounting Software. With
this new release series, GnuCash can use an SQL database using
SQLite3, MySQL or PostgreSQL. It runs on GNU/Linux, *BSD, Solaris,
Microsoft Windows and Mac OSX.

WARNING: You should uninstall any earlier GnuCash version from your
system prior to installing 2.4.0.

Failing to do so may result in startup errors. In particular on
Windows this may cause "Parse error: entry point not found" errors.

Major changes in the 2.4.0 release include;

    * In addition to the XML backend, Gnucash can now use a SQLite3,
    MySQL or PostgreSQL database to store the data. This is a new
    implementation using libdbi. It supports all features including
    the business features. In order to build with this, add
    --enable-dbi to the configure command. In addition to the
    libdbi-dev package for your distribution, you will also need
    the appropriate DBD (libdbi driver) package for sqlite3, mysql
    or postgresql.

    (not enabled in pkgsrc due to lack of recent libdbi)

    * As a replacement for the current GtkHTML HTML engine used to
    display reports and graphs, Gnucash can use WebKit. WebKit is
    the engine used by Google Chrome on Windows and Safari on Apple.

    (enabled in pkgsrc)
