[GNC] GNUCash Installed Via Snap On Ubuntu Bionic - FinanceQuote Unavailable

[rob e]

hi,

I've just installed Ubuntu Bionic (18.04), and elected to install  
GNUCash from a "snap".

Using "snap find gnucash" I then found and installed gnucash-jz which 
installed without trouble. So far so good :)


My accounts are sitting in a mysql database and it was possible to 
connect to the db immediately. Great !


There are various stocks etc defined for auto price update ... which 
worked nicely on the previous Ubuntu Xenial (16.04) system


GNUCash is telling me that there is no finance::quote module when I 
access Securities Editor and look at the Quote Source Information for an 
existing security


I then installed Finance::Quote and Date::Manip via CPAN ... in my home 
directory (perl5) after using apt-get to install Ubuntu's 
build-essential .. which all completed ok


Started gnucash again and it still says finance::quote is unavailable 
??  Help


Is this because the snap cannot / does not search my home directory for 
perl modules  (I know it can access my home directory because I can save 
files there .. and the modules are in ~/perl5/bin)

I can see gnucash mapped into my home directory at 
/home/<me>/snap/gnucash-jz/  ... but I can't really tell what the search 
path is


Do I need to install finance::quote in the system directory rather than 
my home directory? Given the stirling work with mysql enablement it 
seems more likely the snap actually does include finance::quote but not 
found on my installation for some reason. Is there any way for me to 
further debug ?


Thanks in advance
