[GNC] GnuCash -- Flatpak -- Update assistance needed

[Geert Janssens]

Hi Randix,

You probably mean "available on Flathub". I have published an update there to 
bring gnucash to version 3.6.

The errors in your suggest you don't have the proper permissions to install 
the newer flatpaks from flathub. So you likely have to either run the given 
command with elevated privileges (like "sudo flatpak update") or tell flatpak 
to install in the user context instead of the system context
(like "flatpak --user update")
The latter may fail if you originally installed gnucash in the system context 
though.

Regards,

Geert
