I've used pkg_add -r to install slib-3a1_2 and slib-guile-3a1 and then tried 
to portinstall g-wrap, but that failed. So I used pkg_add to install 
g-wrap-1.3.4_7 and then I was able to portinstall gnucash.

However, when I try and run gnucash it fails with the following messages:

ERROR: In procedure dynamic-link:
ERROR: file: "libgw-glib", message: "Shared object \"libglib12.so.3\" not 
found, required by \"libgw-glib.so\""

I've a feeling that libgw-glib was also mentioned in the error when I tried to 
portinstall g-wrap.

Any ideas what I can do now?
