GnuCash 2.6 is no longer maintained and the date-time code is completely different in GnuCash 3 so there won’t be any fix, but since Debian/Ubuntu doesn’t yet support GnuCash 3 your best bet is to find a workaround. The problem is likely that you have what MySQL regards as an invalid date in some record and that that caused a failure to create a date pointer. A bit more of the backtrace from gdb showing where that call came from would help identify what the defective object’s type is and confirm the hypothesis that there’s a bad record in the database. Since you have INFO messages in your Tracefile I suppose that you already ran gnucash --debug. You can get more detail still (though unfortunately not a lot more, there aren’t a lot of DEBUG statements in the XML backend) with gnucash --log gnc.backend.xml=debug that might provide some specifics indicating what object caused the crash.
