[GNC] gnucash not displaying all transactions

[Alex]

Just rebuilt it in case I got it wrong when I compiled a few days ago.

I downloaded it again, a few minutes ago, from here

http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gnucash/gnucash-2.6.20.tar.bz2

Recompiled.

The Help Message Box states - "This copy was built from rev 972647d2d+ 
on 2018-04-17"

I'm using Slackware 14.2
