Finance::Quote 1.18 released

Sun Sep 30 13:16:15 EDT 2012

I didn't actually clear the cruft on the one machine - just switched to my laptop that was newer and had a more clear install. But as I said, gnucash still doesn't get the tiaa-crff quotes correctly.

I forget where fink puts stuff. Is it also in /opt/local? If you're now using the gnucash.app that doesn't need that and you aren't using anything else from fink, you could try deleting the fink stuff.

It seems the date and currency aren't being passed correctly.
