I looked here -- https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/gnucash shows version 4.8 SHOULD be available to you. HOWEVER I have heard the new Ubuntu release strongly pushes everything packaged in snaps. (I haven't upgraded yet so I'm only going by some initial reviews.) I definitely don't recommend installing the ancient unofficial GnuCash 2.6.21 app in the snap store.
However the version in Ubuntu 21.10 "Impish" seemed to have been GnuCash 4.4, so it seems you got GnuCash 4.9 from somewhere else. You may want to review your software sources. The software upgrader probably disabled a PPA or some other non-official software source for GnuCash. The old repository you were using will be present in your sources but commented out. Look in /etc/apt/sources.d/ for a separate file, or a modification to your /etc/apt/sources.list file. And if you're used to installing from the Ubuntu Software "store," you might want to install using a terminal instead.
