gnucash, from scratch -- qt3 and aqbanking issues

[Fred Dushin]

I had some issues updating gnucash on a macbook (c2d), 10.4.8, so I  
started from scratch.  Unfortunately, I ran into the same issue.   
(Hurray for macports, "doing the right thing", though!).  Running  
port version 1.320

The build fails for me in the install phase of builing qt3.   
InstallScript.sh, in the qt3 working directory, has the offending line:

mv /opt/local/var/db/dports/build/ 
_private_opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpu 
pdate_dports_x11_qt3/work/destroot/opt/local/lib/*.* /opt/local/var/ 
db/dports/build/ 
_private_opt_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpu 
pdate_dports_x11_qt3/work/destroot/opt/local/lib/qt3/lib/

which fails, because the "*.*" pattern does not match in said directory.

I can remove/comment this line, and the build proceeds.

aqbanking then fails in configure, trying to locate (AFAIK), the qt  
uic compiler:

configure: *** QT3 is required for QT-frontend "qbanking". Specify -- 
with-frontends="cbanking g2banking" to build aqbanking without that  
frontend.
configure: error:
*** Requirements not fulfilled. Fix your requirements or change the
*** configuration.

So I modified the aqbanking ports file, and added the above  
recommended flags, and the build succeeds.

The rest of the dependencies build, as does gnucash (eventually!).  I  
have no idea if the changes I made are the right ones.  Who would I  
contact to verify?  I'm not sure if I have the time to formulate an  
official patch, as I am not entirely sure which objects I modified  
are derived objects.

Gnucash seems to run, though I have not exactly put it through its  
paces.

I see that gnucash has quite a few (recursive) dependencies!  For  
anyone interested, here is what gets installed from a fresh 1.320  
macports install, after issuing port install gnucash:
