Looks like gnucash-2.7.4-r1 is now in the stable branch of portage despite
gnucash declaring “This release is UNSTABLE and SHOULD NOT BE USED in
production” (their caps, not mine). I’ve masked it and reverted to
icu58.2-r1 by masking icu-60.2. The older icu allows
webkit-gtk-2.4.11-r200 to build, and gives me a version of gnucash which
I’ve used for a long time and trust. Not going to upgrade irreversibly to
a version which the authors themselves don’t trust. My 2 cents.
John
