In that case, John's suggestion to re-build might be your best bet.
Another option to stay current ahead of the default distro version is to
use the Flatpak, but that has its caveats too. See the wiki for more
details.

Derek,
I have built GnuCash 4.2 on Linux Mint which is Ubuntu 20.04 based.
I had a few minor issues sorting out the dependencies
(https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Dependencies) which I think I resolved by
loading specific versions from the Ubuntu launchpad site or built from
source if I couldn't
Derek,
There are various levels of uninstall described here
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Uninstall_Gnucash_Ubuntu.
Using the whereis at the command line can help find where packages are
installed and sometimes identify multiple installations

What's the best way to get this version 4.1 off that I built? Dependency
issues with libboost are making it seem impossible to uninstall it. I
still have the build directory, and ran "sudo ninja uninstall." Before I
trace down and try to fix the errors it's giving me, can you tell me if
Thank you everybody. I did build it on Ubuntu 18. I thought that was
implied by the fact I was running version 4.1, since the package
managers don't have that new of a version. Sorry.
I will probably just install from the distribution, if Adrien says he
couldn't built it on 20.04.

This sounds like you're trying to run a GnuCash built for Ubuntu 18.04 on
20.04. Boost (and ICU) version their libraries so that you have to at least
re-link (and often recompile) anything that depends on them when you upgrade.
Apt should have taken care of pulling in the correspondingly linked
When building, you install the dependencies yourself.
the Boost libraries don't want to install at version 1.65 on 20.04. Apt
complains it can't do it.
But yes, on a regular install, that should the trick.

I would try to uninstall and reinstall gnucash.
That should fix any dependencies

I recall having this problem when trying to build on 20.04. I never
solved it and gave up. (I use Mac as my daily driver)
I would think there is a file with a requirement for 1.65 hardcoded in
error, when it should be looking for >= 1.65.

I am running GnuCash 4.2 on Linux Mint 20 which is based on Ubuntu 20.04
using libboost1.71. I am not sure what version is installed from the
repository but I think it was an early version 4. You could try an uninstall
and reinstall from the repository if you are using the repository
Hello,
I recently updated from Ubuntu 18.04 to Ubuntu 20.04. Which is a major
thing to do, and can't expect to go without a couple hiccoughs.
Since the upgrade, GnuCash doesn't start. Here is the output when I try
to launch it from the Terminal.
~$ gnucash
gnucash: error while loading
