Hi David. Thank you for asking. I am using Linux Lite, Ubuntu 16.04
and GNU Cash 2.6.12 on the older machine. As far as I know, I can not
install any newer version of Ubuntu on this 32bit machine.
Hi Adrien. I'm kinda scared of attempting to build a newer version of
GNU Cash without knowing that someone else has done so successfully.
I'm not that good with computers and the list of dependencies looks
daunting to me. Thank you for your suggestions none the less.

I think it would be helpful to know a bit more about the versions of Gnucash on
the two machines. The message he got was that he needed *at least* 2.6.19, not
that he needed to use it.
Jonathan, does this imply that your older machine is running Ubuntu 16.04? The
Gnucash wiki says that 16.04 had 2.6.12, while 18.04 had 2.6.19. The vintage of
Ubuntu might affect your options here.
And if your older system has a version greater than 2.6.19 on it, something
else has gone wrong, and more info would be needed.

Caveat:
You can have some dependency issues on that old machine that might
prevent building the current version or using Flatpak.
I'd think you *should* be able to build 2.6.19 or 2.6.21 though. (2.6.21
was the last 2.6 version)
Please do report back what you are able to accomplish.
If nothing works, consider possibly using RDP or VNC to your 64bit
machine rather than a local install.
Regards,
Adrien

Jonathan,
You should be able to build a current version of Gnucash on your 32bit
machine.
See the instructions here:
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Building
And you can update to current on your 64bit machine to match.
You might also be able to use the Flatpak if you don't want to build.
(I'd try that first)
Regards,
Adrien

I have my accounts in dropbox and I was using a newer version of GNU

older 32bit computer and I get the error:
This Dataset contains features not supported by this version of
GnuCash. You must use a newer version of GnuCash in order to support
the following features:
* Use account GUID as key for bayesian data and store KVP flat
(requires at least Gnucash 2.6.19)
I have not been able to install the Gnucash 2.6.19 from the tar.gz
files. I'm used to using .deb files on following instructions by copy
pasting in to the terminal. I haven't found anything like that for
installing a newer version on GNU cash on a 32bit linux machine. Any
ideas?
