[GNC-dev] Chartsjs javascript not loaded in html reports since 4.6

[Antonios Hadjigeorgalis]

The suggestion works for running from the build directory.
However, version 4.8a is not installing correctly.  I'm seeing no charts
and negative values for equity / liability accounts after installing with
make.
I'm not sure how to debug this issue.  It runs correctly from the build
directory after creating the symlink.

I'm running on ubuntu 20.04.
