Please remember to copy the list on all replies by using "Reply All".

I need to see the build report from Crypt::SSLeay to know what's failing. Please either paste or attach it to a new email. If you've closed the Terminal session you can run "Finance::Quote Update.app" again; it will probably run only the Crypt::SSLeay build which will make it easy to capture and attach to an email.

On the Windows side, ActiveState has had some problems lately keeping up with Finance::Quote releases so we've been recommending that users uninstall ActivePerl and run the "Install Online Price Quotes" tool. That will install Strawberry Perl, which is better able to deal with CPAN. If you need ActivePerl for something else you can reinstall it after Finance::Quote is installed successfully.
