[GNC] Gnucash terminates immediately

[Bostjan Vilfan]

Thanks  for your hint. I looked at my language settings, and I found that
the languages were in the order (1) English (Slovenia); (2) English (United
States); ... Since the gnucash installation language was (2) all I had to
do was to change the order of (1) and (2), and the  program now works.
Regards,
bostjanv
