I recently experimented with Linux mint (Tara) edition (which I think is 18.2 - 
version you are using) and the first thing I checked was the version of GnuCash 
available for use.

As you noted, the Software Manager has an older version, but you can get the 
latest 3.2 version from flatpack. Click on Flatpack (or perhaps called Flathub) 
when inside the Software Manager and search for GnuCash and you will find one 
packaged. It doesn’t show version info, but when I installed it and ran 
GnuCash, I found out that it is indeed the latest version.

if you are new to GnuCash, be sure to read the Tutorial & Concepts Guide - an 
outstandingly well written document! It helped me get over my fear of 
accounting terminology and accounting in general. All I did was spend half a 
day with it!

Have fun!

Cheers.

Hello,

I just migrated from Quicken to Gnucash. Loving it so far!

The question i have is: Will Gnucash 3.2 be available for Linux Mint 18.2?
The software manager installed 2.6.12
i did the apt update and upgrade and still same version is listed.

i also tried the getweb but got the same version, at least it told me the
same version was installed already.

I see the new version can be built from the source, but I am far from being
a Linux expert and never done that before.

I also have a MacOS running the 3.2 version, so wanted to match both version
on both systems in order to avoid possible bugs between the different
releases.

Regards
