Hi John, Thanks for the verification. As I guessed, probably something I did. I have been using Gnucash for a couple of years. I always update to latest version in exactly the same way. Open the disk image file, copy the 2 applications to my Applications folder, overwriting them when prompted.

Thanks Les, I also used snap to put 2.6.21 on a test machine, also Linux Mint, and it seems to be fine.  My first use of snap and took a while to find the executable.  Maybe  I'll try it for a while.  I was able to build 3.0 on the same machine, but there seem to be so many problem reports,

Gnucash runs better on a Linux system than it does on Windows. My understanding is that it is Linux s/w adapted to run on Windows. So if you want to run Ubuntu ( which is an excellent idea) then run GC natively on that, not under wine. You will be able to install gnucash from the software
