Thank you Colin and Stephen,

3.4 is up and running following your instructions and comments.  I am
very happy :-).


FYI:-

These following comments are for feedback only.  And my intrigue of
course.


        I uninstalled the flatpak version via the Software Centre
        (Ubuntu 18.04) quite easily.  

        Strangely, the Software Centre shows that I have 1:2.6.19-1
        installed.

        Synaptic shows: "Installed Version = 3.4-0-1 | Latest Version
        1:2.6.19-1"  There is an ! mark in the checkbox and it is
        greyed out.

        The Software Updater offers an available update for Gnucash to
        1:2.6.19-1 but the checkbox is blanked.  Obviously your "Hold"
        command at work.

Much of the discussion in the other emails under this thread-line is
beyond my level of understanding. But, perhaps destined to resolve and
normalise future presentation and updating process?
