There are also patches to make currency quotes work again.  You'll need 
both the patches at 
<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=56469> and the ones at 
<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=74660>.  You may also 
want the patches at 
<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=74694> which make 
certain currency quotes work better.  You should apply them in that 
order.

Sorry it's such a mess, but Finance::Quote has not been maintained 
recently.
