Hi all,

I'm having some trouble getting Gnucash to find Finance::Quote. I downloaded the Gnucash 2.4.11 dmg file and dragged Gnucash to /Applications, then ran "FinanceQuote Update" and let it do its thing. I can run gnc-fq-check OK, it gives me this output:

("1.17" "vwd" "yahoo_nz" "australia" "amfiindia" "usfedbonds" "canada" "yahoo" "adig" "bux" "aiahk" "yahoo_australia" "unionfunds" "lerevenu" "asia" "tsx" "indiamutual" "bse" "hungary" "known_currencies" "fidelity_direct" "goldmoney" "tdwaterhouse" "trustnet" "ftportfolios_direct" "cominvest" "morningstar" "ftportfolios" "tdefunds" "hu" "za" "fundlibrary" "stockhousecanada_fund" "yahoo_europe" "platinum" "maninv" "tsp" "financecanada" "usa" "france" "troweprice" "nasdaq" "bmonesbittburns" "yahoo_asia" "tiaacref" "troweprice_direct" "seb_funds" "greece" "fidelity" "yahoo_brasil" "fetch_live_currencies" "dwsfunds" "finland" "hex" "asegr" "brasil" "deka" "nyse" "canadamutual" "asx" "finanzpartner" "fool" "dutch" "uk_unit_trusts" "nzx" "aex" "nz" "vanguard" "europe" "bourso")

But when I open the Price Editor in Gnucash the "Get Quotes" button is simply greyed out. Note that in order to get Gnucash to run from the Dock icon I had to add this to /etc/launchd.conf (previously I had to launch it from the Terminal):

setenv PATH /opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/X11/bin

I also added /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/bin to try to fix Finance::Quote, but that didn't help at all. I also tried running Gnucash with --debug but there is not a mention of Finance::Quote in the Tracefile...

Am I missing something?

Thanks
Luis
