The fix is to upgrade to GnuCash 3.x, which uses WebKit2 instead of WebKit1 on
Linux. WebKit2 won't build on Windows and while it builds on MacOS I can't get
it to run Javascript so the charts are broken, so GnuCash uses WebKit1 on those
platforms.
GnuCash 3.x is available in Debian testing. There's apparently a .deb available
for Ubunutu 18.10 and Steven Butler has been working on making one available
for 18.04; you can read about his efforts in the list archive.
If you're able to build from source, GnuCash 3.x is known to build on 14.04 and
later... in fact building on 14.04 is part of our CI tests.

John Ralls
