So it works ok except that sometimes GnuCash fails to get a few quotes, is that right? This may be "normal" behavior depending on your network connection, etc. Finance-Quote relies on screen scraping to get its info and this isn't always reliable. At any rate, I don't think this is a GnuCash problem. Finance-Quote is a separate product with its own support system.
What makes you think that gnu-fq-dump isn't working? The sample you quoted looked fine to me.
