As Ubuntu and Linux Mint are ultimately Debian based it should be possible to
install using dpkg or the Gdebi installer (you may need to install this on
Ubuntu -in terminal - "sudo apt install gdebi - but it is the default installer
in Linux Mint) from http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gnucash/ which
has versions up to 4.10-2 available usually for a range of processor types.
 Click on a version link to download the appropriate .deb file  and then at
terminal prompt type  "sudo gdebi <filename>.deb" and return.
