[GNC] Strange issue with gnucash, document link column has disappeared from listings

[gnucash at harrisja.us]

I have been using gnucash for quite a while.  I downloaded the source 
and made my own version with some minor modifications.  A few hours, I 
tried to tweak another thing in gnucash and now when ever I open a 
gnucash file, in the account listing the column for showing linked 
documents is gone.

I am running on Linux Mint 21.2.  I keep my modified version of gnucash 
in a separate directory and it looks for its configuration information 
in its own directory as well.  I have been doing this for years without 
issue.

I have tried all kinds of things.  I even rebooted my system into a 
separate partition storing the previous version of link (21.1)  that I 
keep a backup.  I then logged in as a different user and had that 
independent user create a new gnucash file using the normal installed 
version of gnucash (4.8).  Same problem, no column for linked documents 
(the number column follows the date column).

Two screenshots are attached. The first shows the help information for 
the separate users running the normal version of gnucash, in this case 
4.8.  The second screen shot shows the display of the register of a new 
account.  The entry I created does have a document linked to it and I 
can access that document (but the column indicating it exists is missing).

Anybody have any idea where I might look to resolve this mystery. I am 
probably missing something obvious.

Thank you.
