[GNC] Finance::Quote still not working with alphavantage

[David Carlson]

Greg,

Just so you don't feel like you are alone, I have GnuCash running on for
different machines one Windows and three are assorted versions of Uubuntu
and Debian.  Only one of them (one of the Ubuntu machines) will retrieve
quotes successfully through AlphaVantage, and that is about 1/3 to 1/2 of
the U.S. stocks and mutual funds in my list on a given try.  In two or
three tries I think that I get most of them. All of my machines are running
some GnuCash release between 2.6.12 and 2.6.17 and I think that I have gone
through all the steps that have been mentioned in this thread on most of
the machines but GnuCash still does not even tell me that it did not get
any of those stocks or mutual funds.

I suspect that GnuCash may not even be able to find the environment setting
or something.
