Hello,

I recently updated from Ubuntu 18.04 to Ubuntu 20.04. Which is a major 
thing to do, and can't expect to go without a couple hiccoughs.

Since the upgrade, GnuCash doesn't start. Here is the output when I try 
to launch it from the Terminal.

~$ gnucash
gnucash: error while loading shared libraries: 
libboost_program_options.so.1.65.1: cannot open shared object file: No 
such file or directory

Libboost is only available in version 1.67 and 1.71 on the distro's 
package manager. Do I need to manually install 1.65?

Thanks,

Derek Zehr
