Thanks for yourfeedback John.

(1) If the firstever version is 3.11 by Flathub, how the random version 3.7 gotinstalled ?

(2) Gone through thetwo links. However, being new to Linux (1 year) pulling older releasefrom Flathub via CLI is beyond my capacity/skill level. Neither can Ibuild the flatpak myself.

(3) Just like allhistorical versions of Gnucash (.exe) for Windows are available onSourceforge, are there any archived Gnucash flatpaks for Linux ?

I tried to install the latest Flatpak version of Gnucash 4.10 from Flathub.org through clicking 'Install' button on its site. 
However it installs the  lower version 3.7, without even giving me warning that - 'instead of ver 4.10, it is installing lower ver. 3.7'. 
Please help me know the reason where I am going wrong ? 
Actually I wanted to install Flatpak of version 3.11 first- (not going straight to ver. 4.10 from my default repository ver. 2.6.19). But unfortunately Flathub.org does not have version 3.11 listed.
Alternatively, what is the 'way to go' to install latest Flatpak ver. 3.11 ? 
Is there any (.deb) installation file ? or is there any available archived Flatpak of ver, 3.11 ? 


That doesn't seem likely since the first flatub release was 3.11.
https://discourse.flathub.org/t/install-an-older-version-of-an-app/320/3 explains how to get an older release from flathub and the commit history can be found at https://github.com/gnucash/gnucash-on-flatpak. The hash for 3.11 is c354cee.There are nightly builds going back to 3.4 at https://code.gnucash.org/builds/flatpak/maint/.
