[GNC-dev] Flatpak GnuCash and Finance::Quote

[Bruce Schuck]

Hello all,

Noticing that the most recent Flatpak version of GnuCash (4.12+ (Flathub 
4.12)) has v1.49 of Finance::Quote, I wanted to update to the recent 
release candidate I pushed to CPAN. I believe there are issues running 
gnc-fq-update or cpan within the flatpak container because some of the 
modules required by F::Q v1.52 and later require the gcc compiler to 
make and install. As far as I can see, gcc is not in the flatpak GnuCash 
distribution.

While copying the ./lib/Finance tree from GitHub or a downloaded tarball 
may seem to work, some of the lesser used methods for data retrieval may 
not work.
