Thanks Bruce! It seems that the Flatpak update process is working as expected for you.
It might be a day or two till I get time to play, but I'm interested to take a look at Mint 19.1 (based on Ubuntu 18.04) and see what happens with various Flatpak install methods.
I suspect something else is at play for the affected users, perhaps a non-standard Flatpak repo, or some custom preference with regards to Flathub updates.
The trick will be to intentionally replicate it so as to determine the cause, if this isn't default behavior for Mint.

Hi, I have Ubuntu 20.04 With Flatpak and Gnome Software installed in addition to the Ubuntu Software package manager. I started with GnuCash 4.1 and updated to 4.2 seamlessly with Flatpak. I only have one icon for GnuCash to launch as expected. This is the behavior I expected to get from Flatpak. I am not set to update automatically, and the update did not take place until I initiated it. I did not use the command line to update GnuCash and used Flatpak via Gnome Software. That’s the behavior in the latest Ubuntu with Gnome Software installed. I don’t have Linux Mint installed to test at the moment, So I can’t speak for the behavior in Linux Mint. I hope that helps the discussion at least from the perspective of Ubuntu.
