>> RSBrux: I use a Mac, not a Flatpak on Linux, but one detail of this thread caught my eye. You say, "for the one [file named AlphaVantage.pm]? in my Flatpak installation". On the Mac, Finance::Quote installs not one, but two files named AlphaVantage.pm . When I run the "find" command below, I get two results:
/Library/Perl/5.30/Finance/Quote/AlphaVantage.pm /Library/Perl/5.30/Finance/Quote/CurrencyRates/AlphaVantage.pm It is the second file, within the directory CurrencyRates/, which must be updated. Does Flatpack contain two such files? Did you update the correct one? The first file was 12527 bytes, the second (inside CurrencyRates/) is 3938 bytes as updated. Now the situation may be different on Flatpak, in which case this comment is of no use to you. My apologies. Best regards, ??? ?Jim DeLaHunt << Thanks for pointing that out! The directory .../Perl/5.30/Finance/Quote/ in my Flatpak installation has no subdirectories, but I see that the fixed AlphaVantage.pm is in the CurrencyRates subdirectory of the master branch on github (https://github.com/finance-quote/finance-quote/tree/master/lib/Finance/Quote/CurrencyRates). I therefore restored the original AlphaVantage.pm in .../Perl/5.30/Finance/Quote/, downloaded the master branch of F::Q and copied the CurrencyRates subdirectory into my Flatpak installation. Unfortunately, "Get Quotes" still takes 15 minutes and then returns the same "Unable to retrieve" message. Kdiff identifies 70 changed files between F::Q 1.49 and the current master branch, so I guess I will either have to install the entire master branch or install 1.52 and replace the appropriate AlphaVantage.pm What really puzzles me is why F::Q insists on getting currency exchange rates from AlphaVantage, when it's so complicated. In the course of my research, I noticed that F::Q retrieves a currency list from Yahoo (in "Currencies.pm"). It seems that Yahoo also offers FX rates (https://finance.yahoo.com/currencies). Wouldn't it be easier to retrieve the rates from Yahoo as well? _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
