[GNC] Reports not displaying.

[john]

Since releasing GnuCash 5.4 we've gotten 3 bug reports (see below) about report tabs failing to display anything.  Two of the three are for the flatpak distribution of GnuCash 5.4 and running

       WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 flatpak run org.gnucash.GnuCash

works around the problem and allows reports to display normally. Both users have Nvidia GPUs, one quite old. The third report says its for GnuCash 5.2 and the reporter hasn't yet provided any details. The second reporter also installed Gnome Web, aka Epiphany, via Flathub and reported that it has the same symptoms.

For reference GnuCash 5.3's flatpak used Gnome Runtime 43 with WebKitGtk 2.37, GnuCash 5.4's is Gnome Runtime 44 with WebKitGtk 2.39, and the current Epiphany flatpak is runtime 45 with WebKitGtk 2.42.

In addition to flatpaks it seems likely to me that bleeding-edge distributions like Arch Linux might be affected.

I'd like to know who else is affected along with what GPU and driver they have and if they're not using the flatpak what version of WebKitGtk they have installed. I'd also like to collect the same information  from people who have Nvidia GPUs and WebKitGtk >= 2.39 for whom GnuCash reports render normally.
