Thanks for the info everyone.
So now I'm trying to build GnuCash 4.1 on Ubuntu 18, mainly because I
opened my files on GnuCash 4.1 on a Windows device. Maybe I'm getting
myself into more trouble than it's worth. But I'm currently stuck at
Cmake not finding Googletest. Attached is the terminal lines that show
what's up, and why I think it should find Googletest. Hope someone on
here has a bit of experience with this. If it weren't for the extensive
documentation on GnuCash's website about how to build it on Linux, I
wouldn't even be close to this far. :)
Thanks,
Derek

There are considerable report improvements in 4.x and hands down, the
search-as-you-type feature when entering accounts in a transaction is
by far, the greatest productivity and user friendly feature I've seen
in any desktop software in years. It is super fast, and narrows down
your choices very quickly. No more typing through the account
hierarchy with separators to assign that account which is 8 levels
deep. (but you still can if you want to)
Once you use it, you won't know how you managed without it.
Regards,
Adrien
