That is what I was thinking, the problem is to figure out where this needs
to be inserted.

Can you post the link? Then I can save some time for the search.

What I have done so far:

1) chatted with KDE sysadmin about the problem to get their feedback
2) contacted the maintainer of Gwen/AqB to get help/fix. Here's what he did yesterday

https://www.aquamaniac.de/rdm/projects/gwenhywfar/repository/diff/configure.ac?utf8=%E2%9C%93&rev=f47694a4f8721def02424224d661b0971d8f5bfc&rev_to=4961b5bfce972848f7ae233a46d03849e20953e7

3) work on setting up a docker image to build AppImages (time consuming process - mostly waiting)


What I will do next:

4) Take the results of 2) and try them locally (which is OK) and then somehow
   get it to the CI craft build (the fix is in git only as of this time, so
   there is a bit of work ahead)
5) continue with 3)
6) do more work on KMyMoney (Multi-Currency-Input and Cusomizable tab order for input fields)

Hope that gives some insights
