I do not understand why Ubuntu 20.04 LTS is denied later releases.  How can you 
maintain a family of products when you leave some kids behind on the side of 
the road for two years?  I do not care what release number is fixed under.  I 
do want the fix to flow to me through the normal channels as an approved, 
tested version.  That's not a lot to ask, normally!

I never warmed to flaptak or snap with their huge repositories of historic 
files, or compile your own, which means you are off the standard update 
stream.? (I have compiled personal fixes into many distributed packages, know 
my way around configure and all that, but I should not have to go there to get 
basic good operation of current code.)? I wanted an update on the standard 
update stream.

The last bug report suggestion does fix it, so it could be distributed with 
3.8b and possibly other versions to fix this.



Hi David,
I don’t understand your reticence to use flatpak. In my opinion, it is a 
wonderful way to be able to keep up with latest fixes and features, and also be 
able to run a specific older version if there is an issue that makes the latest 
and greatest no good for your situation, as occasionally happens. Admittedly, 
there are some known issues with flatpak, see 
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Flatpak#Known_Issues
3.8B as in Ubuntu 20.04 repository is from Dec 2019.There will be no re-release 
of such an old version.It may be possible to ship a fix for this problem with 
the next 4.6 release, but I’m not sure there is a mechanism that would enable 
an update to an existing gtk css file.Also, doing so may causes problems for 
users of other themes.
Regards, Chris Good
