problem with price quotes in gc1.6.0


Mon, 25 Jun 2001 00:10 -0700


Hello,

I still cannot update stock or mutual fund price quotes
in gnucash (other than by hand, but that hardly counts).
Previously, gnucash would crash on me, but after installing
CPAN modules Date::Manip and Finance::Quote (or something
like that) it seems to be better.  Still doesn't work,
but handles its failure more gracefully.

The report I get from the command line is:
> [bigjoe@bonk bigjoe]$ gnucash --add-price-quotes finance/gnucash.xac
> (handling-request ("fidelity_direct" "FUSEX" "FRTXX" "FLPSX" "FDIVX" "FBALX"))
> (handling-request ("yahoo" "TRMB"))
> gnucash: [W] "Unable to retrieve quotes for these items:
>   FUND:FUSEX
>   FUND:FRTXX
>   FUND:FLPSX
>   FUND:FDIVX
>   FUND:FBALX
>   NASDAQ:TRMB
> Continuing with good quotes.
> "
> [bigjoe@bonk bigjoe]$

Any idea why?  I tried adding the patch to handle quotes
in commodity labels (posted a week or two ago) but that
seems to make no difference.

thanks
