John, From memory there was a bug relating to truncation - see https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2021-October/098191.html for details. I think the work around was to enter the price and then press enter on the keyboard rather than tabbing out of the field - fixed in 4.9 by the look of the bug report.
I've never had problems downloading any of the versions - I usually download Windows and MacOS versions. If you go back to John Ralls last release announcement ( https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2022-March/100452.html) you'll see you can download from both SourceForge and GitHub, I'd be trying both.
