The GNU Cash package clearly *wants* to be able to use the libdbi
backends, since it pulls them in as dependencies. However, you can only
open xml formatted GNU cash files.
The CMake scripts hard-code the DVD path to be basically
<PATH_OF_LIBDBI>/dbd. However GNU Cash does check the environment
variable GNC_DBD_DIR, so I set that environment variable in the wrapper
script.
With this change, you should be able to e.g. "Save As" in the sqlite
format.
Fixes issue #57445
Naive concatenation of $LD_LIBRARY_PATH can result in an empty
colon-delimited segment; this tells glibc to load libraries from the
current directory, which is definitely wrong, and may be a security
vulnerability if the current directory is untrusted. (See #67234, for
example.) Fix this throughout the tree.

The test suite was broken by the GLib 2.46.0 update. If anyone finds a
patch that remedies these issues for 2.4.x, please check it in!
Otherwise, we'll eventually update our default version to 2.6.x, I
suppose.
Closes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/11084.
(My OCD kicked in today...)
Remove repeated package names, capitalize first word, remove trailing
periods and move overlong descriptions to longDescription.
I also simplified some descriptions as well, when they were particularly
long or technical, often based on Arch Linux' package descriptions.
I've tried to stay away from generated expressions (and I think I
succeeded).
Some specifics worth mentioning:
* cron, has "Vixie Cron" in its description. The "Vixie" part is not
mentioned anywhere else. I kept it in a parenthesis at the end of the
description.
* ctags description started with "Exuberant Ctags ...", and the
"exuberant" part is not mentioned elsewhere. Kept it in a parenthesis
at the end of description.
* nix has the description "The Nix Deployment System". Since that
doesn't really say much what it is/does (especially after removing
the package name!), I changed that to "Powerful package manager that
makes package management reliable and reproducible" (borrowed from
nixos.org).
* Tons of "GNU Foo, Foo is a [the important bits]" descriptions
is changed to just [the important bits]. If the package name doesn't
contain GNU I don't think it's needed to say it in the description
either.
This requires recent versions of aqbanking and gwenhywfar:

It seems as if the developers have changed their version numbering
scheme in 2012 and have only released versions with the "beta" suffix
since then.
