[GNC] Error (wrong link) on GnuCash News web page

[Adrien Monteleone]

And each bug on bugzilla.gnome.org has in the last comment a link to the same bug on bugs.gnucash.org. So it may take another click, but anyone will get there eventually.

Though I can’t see any harm in those website links being refactored to bugs.gnucash.org.

And now, you can file a bug/RFE for that! (there’s a website component on bugs.gnucash.org to handle issues with the site, wiki and mailing list)

Regards,
Adrien
