That duplicated and now incorrect effort has been removed and the updated installer will be included with the next version of GnuCash, due for release at the end of March. In the meantime you can open ActivePerl's package manager and tell it to install Finance::Quote; it should take care of all of the dependencies on its own.

We don't care. If no perl is found the Install Online Quote Retrieval tool will install Strawberry, but if the user already has ActivePerl installed it will get the packages for that.
