18.04, I’ve tested them on 18.10, but there is a larger dependency mess.

Flatpaks are installed via a separate system. See here: 
https://flatpak.org/setup/Ubuntu/

You can then search for and install via flathub.org, or cli with ‘flatpak 
install’

If I recall correctly, one of the devs now officially maintains the flatpak of 
GnuCash. Unfortunately, flathub.org does not say which version is available, 
though I’d suspect the cli search feature to report it correctly.

For that I’ve always built from source, but that was before the flatpak and now 
this .deb file were available.
