When I look at https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations#GNC_DATA_HOME, I think it says for Linux, GNC_DATA_HOME is USER_DATA_HOME/gnucash, and USER_DATA_HOME is $HOME/.local/share, so that should turn into $HOME/.local/share/gnucash
A similar look at GNC_CONFIG_HOME yields $HOME/.config/gnucash
At least, that's how I interpret that page. I've been spectacularly wrong before, though.
