That's a possiblity, but we should keep in mind that many rpm
users aren't going to have experience with creating symlinks
and such. GnuCash has a (deserved) reputation of being a bear
to install and I think we should try as much as possible to
change that. Having a gnucash rpm that installs and runs on
a stock redhat system would be a real plus.
Given that the 1.3.4 dependency results from a single function
call, I think we are better off just working around it for now.
