Elmar, Since you say they seem to run, why don't you try closing gnucash and then copying your saved-reports-2.4 to saved-reports-2.8, re-opening Gnucash and opening each saved report in turn and then if everything looks ok saving the config of each of your reports ? I've upgraded over the years and am also using the flatpak version 4.4 on Ubuntu and have both a saved-reports-2.4 and a saved-reports-2.8 in the .var/app/org.gnucash.GnuCash/data/gnucash/ folder and the 2.4 version is just ignored.
Just backup your files first of course. Cheers David H.
