I have seen the same problem.  The virtua/x11 does not show up in emerge -p
gnucash, so it seems like a unresolved dependency.  Here is my emerge --info:

Here's what I'd like to do, people.  I'd like to deprecate gnucash-1 entirely
in favour of gnucash-2.  Ideally, I want to stable gnucash-2.0.1 in the next
week.

What do folks think about this?  Please let me know if you have functionality
that isn't satisfied by gnucash-2, because then I'll fix this bug.  Otherwise,
I think gnucash-1 is just a wasted effort, really.

+1.  We stopped maintaining 1.8.x when 2.0.x was still 1.9.x.  2.0.x is at
least as good, and definitely better, than 1.8.x.

To try 2.0.x I had:
echo "app-office/gnucash ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
echo "dev-perl/Finance-Quote ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
Anything else that I should upgrade to unstable ?
Thank you.

that should be all you need.  I intend to update sland and something else in
portage soon (they're on my buglist)

I think more time should be given for 1.8.11. 2.0.1 is a huge release and if it
somehow breaks for some people or has bugs, they should be able to fall back on
1.8.11 for at least a while longer. 1.8.11 is rock solid, I don't quite trust
2.x yet to use it.

There just needs to be a dependancy on 

media-fonts/font-adobe-100dpi
and
media-fonts/font-adobe-75dpi

and pkg_setup can be removed.

After seeing Seemant's recent blog post today, part of me wants to agree with
removing old packages, but in the end I have to disagree with deleting old
packages like gnucash so hastily. In fact why should 1.8 ever be removed from
the tree? Why should a distro force me to upgrade a program if I don't want to?
Why should I have to go into portage's CVS attic and find an old ebuild if I
for some reason need to re-emerge gnucash-1.8*? What is the fundamental problem
that certain devs have with old packages in the tree? I am sure there are other
ways of  resolving these problems which don't include removing them from the
tree.

This built_with_use check is completely bogus, please remove it (and replace
with appropriate dependency if needed).

1.8.11 and 1.8.12 both fixed.

In reply to my own comment #6 and comment #8, I have now upgraded to
gnucash-2.x and it is a lot more stable than I expected, in fact, I feel like I
am using the old one except it is GTK2. No bugs like I noticed in the earlierer
betas.

I still think that 1.8.x should not be deleted, but should be made ~x86 or
masked or moved to sunrise or something. You never know what reason a user
might have for sticking with an older version. You don't want to support 1.8.x?
Fine with me.
