I've forwarded the above message to the finance-quote-devel
mailing list, but because i'm not subscribed, my mail is probably
rejected.

In the meantime, I found this bug report (#46006) on :
http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=46006


Tried today to get USDEUR=X from yahoo, and the currency returned
still is EUR.

Tried also from yahoo_europe, but then the currency is completely
missing.
