System error getting price quotes

Fedora 10, gnucash 2.2.9 fc10-i386 distribution

I was not able to get USD conversions so I casually ran gnc-fq-update to see
if it had been patched. Now I get no price quotes at all.

gnc-fq-update shows the following--
LWP is up to date (5.831).
Date::Manip is up to date (5.54).
HTML::Parser is up to date (3.62).
HTML::TableExtract is up to date (2.10).
Crypt::SSLeay is up to date (0.57).
Finance::Quote is up to date (1.16).

gnc-fq-dump works --
gnc-fq-dump yahoo ALVR
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
    symbol: ALVR                 <=== required
      date: 09/04/2009           <=== required
  currency: USD                  <=== required
      last: 3.91                 <=\
       nav:                      <=== one of these
     price: 3.91                 <=/
  timezone:                      <=== optional

 So what did I break?
