I resisted for as long as possible, but I finally upgraded to Ubuntu Breezy.
It was quite easy in the end. The upgrade notes and this page were of some help of course.
Be warned, that if you have GNUcash installed on Hoary, you should uninstall it. I didn’t and ran into these problems with libofx2. How to fix? Uninstall gnucash with the following command:
dpkg -r gnucash
dpkg -r gnucash-common
Now, run apt-get -f install and finally apt-get dist-upgrade again!
I can’t run GNUcash yet, I hope they get this fixed soon! (In an ironic twist, launchpad.net is down for maintenance, it’ll be back later!)
Later! I discovered how to fix the problem with libofx2! You need to remove libofx0c102 first!
