[GNC] Python bindings issue

[Gere Kiss Zsolt]

Thanks, Nate. I don't want to purge the `python3-gnucash` package for fear
that it will remove my GnuCash settings.

Python 3.11.2 (main, May  2 2024, 11:59:08) [GCC 12.2.0] on linux

This is important, as it indicates that the bindings work with Python
3.11.2 (I have 3.10). This solved my issue. I'll follow up with another
email explaining that.

Cheers,
    Zsolt
