Check out the GnuCash Wiki concerning using the Debian Archive: https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Ubuntu#GnuCash_.40_Debian_Archive It is linked there, but you can look at the list of available .deb packages here: http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gnucash/ Theoretically, you could

If I recall correctly, the original plan was to stop 32-binaries & installers for 18.04, but the outcry resulted in a back-track. (thankfully, too many good machines in perfect working order out there, I manage several.) The big push was Steam, but there were some other libraries that needed

*I* know for sure that Ubuntu 18.04 will run on a 32-bit machine (I have it on a VM). The deal is this: Ubuntu no longer provides *installers* for 32-bit machines -- I believe 16.04 is the last version of Ubuntu that includes installer / live CD ISOs for 32-bit machines. Once you have a

Jonathan, I'm not a Linux person, but a search online turned up https://askubuntu.com/questions/768415/where-can-i-find-32-bit-version-of-ubuntu Which suggested that 18.04 was available for 32-bit: https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/18.04.5/release/xubuntu-18.04.5-desktop-i386.iso

Hi David.  Thank you for asking.  I am using Linux Lite, Ubuntu 16.04 and GNU Cash 2.6.12 on the older machine.  As far as I know, I can not install any newer version of Ubuntu on this 32bit machine. Hi Adrien.  I'm kinda scared of attempting to build a newer version of GNU Cash without

I think it would be helpful to know a bit more about the versions of Gnucash on the two machines. The message he got was that he needed *at least* 2.6.19, not that he needed to use it. Jonathan, does this imply that your older machine is running Ubuntu 16.04? The Gnucash wiki says that 16.04

Caveat: You can have some dependency issues on that old machine that might prevent building the current version or using Flatpak. I'd think you *should* be able to build 2.6.19 or 2.6.21 though. (2.6.21 was the last 2.6 version) Please do report back what you are able to accomplish. If

Jonathan, You should be able to build a current version of Gnucash on your 32bit machine. See the instructions here: https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Building And you can update to current on your 64bit machine to match. You might also be able to use the Flatpak if you don't want to build.

I have my accounts in dropbox and I was using a newer version of GNU cash on my 64bit computer.  Now I"m trying to use the files on my older 32bit computer and I get the error: This Dataset contains features not supported by this version of GnuCash. You must use a newer version of GnuCash in
