The 'no suitable backend' is clueing me to an issue with that particular file and not having the right backend installed/enabled.

But Jeffrey already said opening the file directly works fine and is using XML. (usually one sees that error when trying to use one of the db backends since XML is not an issue)

I'm going to hazard there is some weird flatpak bug at play and it seems to have been resolved as of 21.10.

Maybe there is a solution or workaround, or maybe upgrading to the next LTS (22.04, due out next month) will do the trick.

Regards,
Adrien

Jeffery,

I have the Gnucash flatpak "user" version installed. The gnucash flatpak
wiki desktop shortcut (https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Flatpak) works for me
on Ubuntu 21.10 after updating my file location (see below)  The one step
not mentioned is to right click the desktop shortcut and select "Allow
launching" - this updates the desktop shortcut icon and if you don't do
this it just opens in text editor.
