GSettings is something with which I'm not really familiar, but here is the situation. On the 21.10 installation, where compiled gnucash 4.9 works as expected, $ gsettings list-schemas | grep -i gnucash org.gnucash.dialogs.account org.gnucash.dialogs.sxs.since-last-run ... There are 68 of thes

Sorry, I understood that you had built 4.9 on Ubuntu 21.10 and that on 22.04 you're using the Ubuntu-built GnuCash, which https://packages.ubuntu.com/ tells me is 4.8. According to https://packages.ubuntu.com/ Ubuntu 21.10 provides G

Actually, I spoke too soon. I had built 4.9 on a 21.10 installation and it worked fine. Then building it on 22.04 results in the preferences and report plot problems again. So there's something about the way that the rest of the 22.04 system interacts with gnucash, which is the problem. On 3/1

4.9 itself is a released version, but the packager may have built it against an earlier Ubuntu target, so it might not work properly. (the GnuCash team doesn't release .debs or maintain the Ubuntu repo version) Glad to hear you got it straight with a custom build. Maybe let the package maintai
