Yes, dotnet is required if the latest mono still has a problem. Mono has a
failure at a piece of code that I found previously. Have not filed a bug report
with mono about that.

Thanks for noticing msxml6 is required. After installing msxml6, Quickbooks Pro
2020 does actually start. It was that easy. So can confirm it works.

To consider this a complete success, activation must work, a previous
Quickbooks business must be able to import, and Quickbooks must work fine.

Will try to test as much as possible and see how it goes.
