[GNC] GnuCash 4.2 Released

[David Cousens]

James,

Linux Mint generally doesn't upgrade application packages between releases.
They usually use whatever version of GnuCash was current in the Ubuntu
release on which the Linux MInt release is based although for LM20 that
lists 3.8b and V4.0 was what was initially installed for the repository when
I first upgraded to LM20. GnuCash is not loaded as a default package in LM
but is avavilable from the LM/Ubuntu apt repository.

The following command in a terminal will list the packages installed
initially in LM
zgrep '^Package:' /var/log/installer/initial-status.gz|sed 's/.* //'|sort

If you want to upgrade to the latest version it is usually necessary to
either  build from the sources
(https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Building_On_Linux) 
or if there is a flathub or snap copy of the version you want, load that.
