Thanks for responding. I didn‘t mean to apply any pressure, I just thought it appropriate to report something which might indicate an oversight in the packaging of the Flatpak release. I have been perfectly happy with 4.13+ (and many previous releases) and am not in a hurry to upgrade. Many thanks for your dedication to GnuCash!
