What error?  The message you replied to is a distro flame war.

This is probably the CPAN install.

This is probably the Fink install.

No idea.  Looks like an Apple name with the capitals in the path.  Which
path gnucash is trying to use will probably depends on how you installed
it.  aMy guess is that you have ll the pieces installed in one location,
but gnucash is looking in a different path.

Try the steps in
http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_How_do_I_fix_a_system_error_when_getting_stock_quotes.
See if that helps you figure out what gnucash can't find.
