Upgrade to 7.10, which has gnucash 2.2.1 packaged.

If you really want to build it from sources on 7.04, you'll need to
figure out what development packages to install (build-essential at the
very minimum, libgconf2-dev to resolve the specific problem you saw,
probably others as well).  apt-get build-dep gnucash might help, if 7.04
had a gnucash package.
