[GNC] GnuCash repackaged for macOS

[Andrew Tomlinson]

I did see this problem with the original 5.16 version, but the 5.16-3 version fixed it. I’m on an M1 mac running Sequoia MacOS 15.7.7. The -3 label doesn’t show in the “About Gnucash” screen generated from within GnuCash, but it does in the Finder “Get Info” panel. Is it possible you’ve inadvertently launched the prior version?

For instance, on open, a Schedule Tranasactions list pops up, but without the application having focus. I dismiss the Scheduled Transactions dialog and GnuCash loses focus again. Same thing happens when I create an invoice, or for that matter, any workflow in GnuCash that brings up a popup makes the app lose focus.
