Comment(by macports@…):

 This is definitely not fixed. I tried from scratch - downloading
 MacPorts-1.7.0-10.5-Leopard.dmg, and then doing "sudo port install
 gnucash". Once I start gnucash, I get:
 Xlib:  extension "RANDR" missing on display "/tmp/launch-lVQBbc/:0".
 Followed by the complaint that preferences are not accessible.
 Then I get a bunch of:
 Failed to load key /apps/gnucash/general/show_splash_screen: Failed to
 contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to
 enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a
 system crash. See http://www.gnome.org/projects/gconf/ for information.
 (Details -  1: Failed to get connection to session: dbus-launch failed to
 autolaunch D-Bus session: EOF in dbus-launch reading address from bus
 daemon

 If I try
 dbus-launch gnucash
 I get:
 Failed to start message bus: In D-Bus address, character '+' should have
 been escaped

 EOF in dbus-launch reading address from bus daemon

 Please help! Had I known that updating would make my gnucash broken, I
 would have never done it. I promise I'll never update again.

 I'm on Intel MBP 10.5.6.

 Thanks!
