There is no "executable" with flatpak. You use the command
flatpak run org.gnucash.GnuCash
to start the gnucash flatpak

Flatpak has some sandbox issues as I understand, but this doesn’t look like one
of them.

uninstalled the flatpak, downloaded the source and compiled it. I also deleted

Thank you, everyone. I think I will wait for the next version to come out next
month and try it out then. If I am going to install it by hand, I might as well
install the latest.

GnuCash configuration locations changed between the last 2.6 version and the
3.x versions. Details are given here
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations of the locations for
the current version and the 2.6 series. The files should have been copied
from one location to the new

You're not on the latest Ubuntu (which is currently 19.04 "Disco," and in a
few weeks will be 19.10 "Eoan"). Howev
Ubuntu grabs the current version when they set their freeze for a release.
Newer releases are not backported by the Ubuntu team. (I think there are some
technical reasons for the holdup)
As for the config issue, the 3.x series changed some config locations to make
them more sane across platform
Ubuntu 19.04 is out and that is what I have.
Go to this folder on my Google drive:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1j58hHK_2lAKyNhlC4ZNoSNCfuI5Dqc7R
It will have .deb files for v3.4 and v3.5 compiled on Ubuntu 18.10.
I've heard they work well with 18.04 also.
I have v 3.5 and v3.6 compiled und
Simply grabbing the the current package in the Ubuntu repo might not be
adequate to reconnect the configuration files. You may need to decide
whether you want that package or the recently available flatpak or perhaps
stay with 2.6.21, depending on you particular usage preferences.
In all of those
Ubuntu is now up to 18.10 "Cosmic Cuttlefish." Apparently Ubuntu doesn't make
much effort to get the most recent Gnucash.
I am still thinking that way-back-when Gnucash copied my files config stupid,
and having a more recent version try again may solve the problem.

You mentioned that Ubuntu upgraded a few times. Does that mean that you
are no longer on release 16.04?
That release is very stale today.
If not 16.04, what release are you on?
There is currently a flatpak release of GnuCash 3.6 available, but it has
limitations that makes it unsuited for some us
A year or two ago I was running Ubuntu 16.10. When I upgraded to the next
Ubuntu version, Gnucash did some moving and reformatting of my config files.
When I ran Gnucash, it would hang up inside any register and crash. I 'solved'
the problem by running 2.6.12 in Virtualbox on Ubuntu 16.04, which i
