[GNC] No Suitable Backend Found

[Geert Janssens]

Just to be sure you didn't miss this: on MacOS you can't open a gnucash file by double-clicking 
on it. Gnucash will ignore what you clicked and will open the file it had last opened anyway. If 
you want to open another gnucash file you need to do that from within gnucash using File-
>Open...

Regards,

Geert
