[GNC] New accounts don't show up in GC 5.8 under Flathub

Thanks for the tips. 
I do have a 64-bit OS, which is why I left out “ flatpak --arch=x86_64” in the commands that I executed.  I tried to make this clear in my post.  Sorry that it wasn’t. 
I am not familiar with downloading packages to install, especially in flatpak. 
I tried to follow your instructions, but when I try to install the downloaded package, flatpak wants to also install org.gtk.Gtk3theme.Breeze 3.22.  I am reluctant to do this, because Discover says that I already have version 6.13 installed in flatpak.
You seem to have supplied the missing piece I was looking for in your post below:
> gnucash-stable-C5.8-20-ga84189b79d-D5.7-2-ge45aa63c.flatpakref
but I am still confused. 
The wiki suggests that a nightly build should contain “maint-“ rather than “stable-“.
Thanks again for your help.
