I am using ubuntu 12.04 lts and the installed version of gnc is 2.4.10.
There is no gnc-fq-update executable. The installed fq was 1.17.

But I did a cpan update of fq and it brought it up to 1.18 and then the
price editor ran without reporting an error retrieving USD. So the old
version of fq was definitely my problem.

         You suspect F::Q twice installed , from Ubuntu andCPAN, but only
         one was
         updated and now the old version is disturbing.

         I see that ubuntu 12.04  installed as latest version
         ilibfinance-quote-perl
         (1.17+git20110918-1)
         If I want this remove in Synaptic Package Manager than also
         Gnucash will be
         removed

         Solution?


     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.
