Ok, these were to ensure our basic assumption is correct. You're
effectively running /usr/bin/gnucash and not some alias or link to
another location.

I'm sorry about that. I could have asked to filter more aggressively
(but it was very late here when I wrote my last mail). This is the info
I was looking for:

These lines show that the config-user.scm file is found. No idea why
this wouldn't print the value of XDG_DATA_DIRS to your gnucash trace
file. But if needed we can debug that later. Let's first follow the
other possible clue below.

Ok, that confirms gnucash has an issue with finding settings schemas in
some way.

Unfortunately my command was bad (late night...) :(
Can you retry with this command:
strings ./share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled | grep
org.gnucash.general
dellbert@dellbert:/usr$ cd /usr/local
dellbert@dellbert:/usr/local$ strings
./share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled | grep org.gnucash.general
dellbert@dellbert:/usr/local$
And, for good measure,
dellbert@dellbert:/usr/local$ cd /usr
dellbert@dellbert:/usr$ strings
./share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled | grep org.gnucash.general
((iiii))org.gnucash.general.report

Incidentally, I have a Scheduled Transaction due today (9/12) that
wasn't automatically created. Using Actions/Scheduled
Transactions/Since last run did create it, as well as one for 9/14
which is configured for 2-days-in-advance creation, so that much is
working as intended.
