Since releasing GnuCash 5.4 we've gotten 3 bug reports (see below) about report
tabs failing to display anything. Two of the three are for the flatpak
distribution of GnuCash 5.4 and running
WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 flatpak run org.gnucash.GnuCash
works around the problem and allows reports to display normally. Both users
have Nvidia GPUs, one quite old. The third report says its for GnuCash 5.2 and
the reporter hasn't yet provided any details. The second reporter also
installed Gnome Web, aka Epiphany, via Flathub and reported that it has the
same symptoms.
For reference GnuCash 5.3's flatpak used Gnome Runtime 43 with WebKitGtk 2.37,
GnuCash 5.4's is Gnome Runtime 44 with WebKitGtk 2.39, and the current Epiphany
flatpak is runtime 45 with WebKitGtk 2.42.
In addition to flatpaks it seems likely to me that bleeding-edge distributions
like Arch Linux might be affected.
I'd like to know who else is affected along with what GPU and driver they have
and if they're not using the flatpak what version of WebKitGtk they have
installed. I'd also like to collect the same information from people who have
Nvidia GPUs and WebKitGtk >= 2.39 for whom GnuCash reports render normally.

John Ralls
