[GNC] Flatpack GnuCash v3.2 available in Linux Mint and flathub website

[Les]

Thanks for posting the Flatpack information.  I have a test machine 
running Linux Mint 19 on an older Dell laptop.  I went to the Flatpack 
site and installed GC 3.2.  The install went without a hitch.  I 
transferred my latest GC file on my production machine running GC 2.6.21 
and Linux Mint 18.2, to that machine and opened the file.  Everything 
looked great except:

there are no totals for Assets, Current Assets, Investments and several 
other accounts.  Also there was a $4.70 difference in Profits.  I 
haven't taken the time to track that down as yet.

I really like the ease of installation that Flatpack provides.

Thanks,

Les
