My experience has been that each time there is a new (stable, not developer) release of gnucash the flatpak version is also updated with the then current version of finance-quote. If finance-quote is updated, this does not usually trigger a new release of gnucash and the flatpak. So there is a trade-off with using the flatpak version: the convenience of not having to maintain a build environment and building the new version against some delays in getting updates of finance-quote. This is frustrating at times but it is good to remember that this software exists only through the work of volunteers. I have been using gnucash for many years and I am grateful that it is still being maintained and improved. Dale
