BigSur absolutely is supported. What's not yet available yet is a native build
for Apple Silicon, but I've found so far that the Intel build of GnuCash works
fine with Rosetta2.
The BigSur upgrade seems to have messed up perl; I had to reinstall F::Q to get
it working after I upgraded, but one could also set $PERL5LIB in the
environment to include the old /Library/perl/5.18 as a workaround. If you did
that in a shell rc file it would make gnc-fq-helper work from terminal but not
from GnuCash when run from LaunchServices.
Does F::Q work when starting GnuCash from the terminal?
