Teh problem is that I didn't write down each rpm file that I
installed. I went to <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html">http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html</a> I
then went down the list there and did an rpm -qa|grep "listed item" to
see if it was installed. If it wasn't I used the Mandriva uprm system
to retrieve and install the appropriate items. In my case it was GNAT,
binutils, MPFR library, and GMP libraries. The problem is that I also
installed some PERL binaries listed in the Mandriva MCC, but do not
know if they were needed. I installed all these and then ran gnucash
and the finance::quote was then working. My suspicion is that the
needed items were only those I listed from gnu.org.<br>

Hope this helps someone else.<br>

<pre wrap="">Oliver,
Thank you. That was the problem. I needed to install GNAT and a couple
of other items and now it works. I am grateful for your guidance.

<pre wrap=""><!---->While this doesn't affect me at all, could you list all the items you had to
install? there will be other users googling for the answers and a complete
list in the archives will save a lot of angst.
