As ubuntu 12.04 claims to be LTS, you should ask at ubuntu for an 
update. Strange, they should have done that over a year ago.

In between you can try:
  sudo gnc-fq-update

If that has no effect, search for a solution to have cpan perl before 
ubuntu perl in the respective execution path.

If that is too complicated or has undesired effects, search 
/usr/lib/perl5 for Finance/Quote dirs and move manually that with the 
1.17 modules out of the way as root. But be aware that might confuse 
your package manager.
