Updated Finance-Quote to 1.44; GnuCash still not retrieving quotes

It is curious that alphavantage is not one of the choices under the
"Unknown" button in the security editor after the "Get Online Quotes" box
is checked.
After re-reading your initial message I see that F::Q does appear to be
functioning as a standalone but it is not integrated correctly into GnuCash.

If you click on Help in the Security Editor there is a link in the help to
go to another section called "Steps to enable On-line price updating".
There you can find instructions on how to  run the “gnc-fq-dump” test
program and a few additional hints.  If that does not solve your problem
there should be someone either here or at the IRC chat page that can help
solve whatever error remains after running those tests.  If that help file
is not bundled in that Ubuntu package you should be be able to find it
online.
Alas, I myself have not been able to get it to work in Debian Stretch where
I would prefer to use it, but I have not found time to do the tests that
the help suggests.
