Dear List, for the next running into these issues. My Problem: I am running debian stable/strech 9. The stable version delivers a pretty old gnucash. I have used gnucash on fedora before, was there on 3.2 already and could not use the more recent database in the old version. So I removed the old gnucash and installed gnucash 3.2 via flatpak in this way: (1) I installed flatpak via apt. (2) Opened the application "Software" and installed gnucash.
The cause: Gnucash started in English, no matter what I have tried. This process has not installed the locales for gnucash. You can recognize this situation by starting it from command line via $ flatpak run org.gnucash.GnuCash It will give you "The locale defined in the environment isn't supported. Falling back to the 'C' (US English) locale". I found a hint [1] and issued: $ flatpak remote-ls flathub | grep gnucash org.gnucash.GnuCash org.gnucash.GnuCash.Debug org.gnucash.GnuCash.Locale org.gnucash.GnuCash.Sources This shows, that gnucash seems to have a subpackage .Locale that smells like my missing translations. As I had modified my local flatpak installation, I removed gnucash with $ sudo flatpak --system uninstall org.gnucash.GnuCash and installed them again with: $ sudo flatpak --system install flathub org.gnucash.GnuCash org.gnucash.GnuCash.Locale And it worked: flatpak run org.gnucash.GnuCash => German Thanks for your patience with me! If I can help others, I am glad!
