P.S. I believe this is the bug in 3.4:
https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797046

It is too bad there isn't a way for Debian's stable release to get bug
fixes so that the stable version in the repo remains the most reliable
version.  Seems the current model means that users are stuck with
whichever version is baked into the stable repo - warts and all.

Hi Andrea,

Thanks for the message.  Do you know whether there is a simple command
line operation I can run to install Gnucash 3.8 from Debian 10 testing
repo?

I tried to google the solution but what I found seemed to suggest a
lot of modifications to the sources file or introducing a pinning
concept.  I only want to install this one package (and the necessary
dependencies) from testing, ideally without messing with the /etc/ files.

Thanks,
Ken

I recently moved from Windows 7 (due to end of life) to Debian 10.  I
have gnucash 3.4 installed from the standard repo.  However I think
this
version contains a bug as I cannot see any of the historical FX
prices I
stored in the Price Database. I think I need to move to a more recent
version.  I saw this wiki article: https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Debian
but no clues there on how to install the latest version 3.8. Can anyone
here advise?

Hi, Ken.

If you're comfortable with using the "testing" distribution, then GC
3.8 is already included, I am using it now.

If you prefer to continue using the "stable" distribution of Debian,
then you could try the "flatpak" version of GC, available here:
https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gnucash.GnuCash

How to use Flatpak on Debian:

Regards,
Andrea.
