[GNC] gnucash 3.6 -- reports -- "URL cannot be shown" - SOLVED

[Harry G McGavran Jr]

FWIW:

"README.dependencies" for gnucash states:

 webkit                webkitgtk-3.0 (Windows, Mac)
                       webkit2gtk-3.0 (Everything Else)

For Ubuntu Xenial, this is clearly wrong.
webkit2gtk-4.0 is what is needed.
