You can add an environment variable that will persist across sessions usually in ~/.bashrc on Mint.

That should work even for flatpak because the app is being run by your user account which also reads that file.

Otherwise, you can edit the launcher itself in your Mint Menu. Find the menu entry in the menu and right-click it, then click on Properties in the drop-down menu. In the resulting Properties pop-up, edit the Command: field to include the work around. (note, if you set the variable in .bashrc, this step should not be necessary)

There is no need to create a custom launcher.

That launcher is hooked to an org.gnucash.GnuCash.desktop file. However, I see 4 such files on this system, and I'm not sure which one is being read by the menu. But you can edit one or all of them to include the workaround in the Exec field there as well. (same thing as editing the Command: field above)

Adrien

Where is this file located in the flatpak version of gnucash? Currently, I open a terminal and then launch the command line (Mint 21.3, Mate DE).  It would be nice not to have to do that separately from the normal invocation of GNC.
