To check whether the data part of that works correct we could have Gnucash 
print out the numbers that should appear in the chart. If you installed 
Gnucash into /usr/local, this is done as follows: Go into the file 
/usr/local/share/gnucash/scm/report.scm . In line 505, remove the leading 
';;' so that it just reads

              (display html) (newline)           

(Re-)Start GnuCash from some console. As you can see, the html source code 
for each report gets printed to the console. For the expense piechart, there 
should be a line

<param name="data" value="5273.65 4364.7 3561.03 2691.17 2511.48 2366.56 
3365.66 ">

which *should* show the numbers that should be shown in the chart.
