[GNC] GNUCash 4.6 for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

[David G. Pickett]

First bug: Reconcile no longer picks up the final balance from the specified date!  Was this someone else's idea of an improvement?

I got so envious of gnucash 4.6 users that I used flatpak to install it on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (the current LTS).  The procedure to run it is a bit odd but I followed the product specific bits of the online instructions.

https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Flatpak

It did not tell me what it was going t install!  After Install it seems to work, some settings seemed to be lost or ignored as it asked me if I wanted to auto save, which had been turned on -- the usual install forgets stuff problem!  I does complain on the way up, but I am not sure what is not working:
