John,
It appears that you are installing Gnucash from the Unstable repository
of Debian. What is the version of Debian that you are running? If it is
not Unstable, i.e., Stable or Testing, then you might be running into a
conflict of library versions. All of the shared libraries that Gnucash
3.2-1 will need may not be installed or of the correct version. You may
need to upgrade libraries as well as Gnucash.
HTH.

Oh, you said the attempted upgrade failed. So after upgrading you get
that error. How did you upgrade
sudo apt install gnucash
and what is shown by
apt-cache policy gnucash
apt-cache policy gnucash
gnucash:
Installed: 1:3.2-1
Candidate: 1:3.2-1
Version table:
*** 1:3.2-1 180

ll /usr/bin/gnucash
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 35888 Jul 4 04:21 /usr/bin/gnucash
With above done I get the error.
=================================================================================================
To use gnucash, I go back to packages from the past:
For the last working version, I install by
dpkg -i gnucash_1%3a2.6.14-1_amd64.deb
gnucash-common_1%3a2.6.14-1_all.deb
with the above 2.6.14 version installed:
apt-cache policy gnucash
gnucash:
Installed: 1:2.6.14-1
Candidate: 1:2.6.14-1
Version table:
1:3.2-1 180
180 http://deb.debian.org/debian unstable/main amd64 Packages
1:2.6.15-1 160
160 http://deb.debian.org/debian stable/main amd64 Packages
*** 1:2.6.14-1 1100
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Thanks for thinking about this,
