-<p>The GnuCash development team announces GnuCash 2.6.21, the twenty-second and final, final maintenance release in the 2.6-stable series. This snap release fixes a brace of significant bugs that would have prevented some users from having a 2.6.x fallback after using GnuCash 3.x.<b> Note:</b> This is the last version of GnuCash that will support MacOS X versions earlier than 10.9 or Microsoft Windows versions earlier than Windows 7.</p>

For negative values of num-of-weeks, the number is truncated in the wrong direction (i.e. towards 0). This change uses floor instead to ensure the num-of-weeks found is the nearest integer LESS than the fractional number.</li>

 <h2>Important update notification</h2>
 <p>If you are updating from gnucash 2.6.0-2.6.4 on linux, you are advised to remove the guile user cache or several parts of gnucash may fail to work properly. This user cache can be found in <em>.cache/guile/ccache/2.0-LE-8-2.0/</em> in your home directory. It's safe to remove the whole contents of this directory.</p>
 <p>Note .cache is a hidden folder in your home directory. You may have to change your file manager's settings in order to view hidden files and folders.</p>

Date:   Mon Apr 16 23:11:04 2018 +0200

    Correctly mention GNC_DATA_HOME instead of GNC_DOC_PATH
    
    The latter also exists but is not the replacement of GNC_DOT_DIR.
