Geert,

I'm now using

Version: 5.10
Build ID: 5.10+(2024-12-14)

from a PPA on ubuntu. 

gnucash/oracular,now 1:5.10-1xtradeb1.2404.1 amd64 [installed]
personal and small-business financial-accounting software


cat xtradeb-ubuntu-apps-oracular.sources 
Types: deb
URIs: https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/xtradeb/apps/ubuntu/
Suites: oracular
Components: main



FWIW there are many other instances of invoices being paid with credit
notes, and they seem to be fine, I think, unless it is complaining
about all of them.
