[GNC] FinanceQuote install broken on OSX

[gnucash.dgr9z at ncf.ca]

Hi,

I am using Gnucash 3.2 on OSX 10.13.6 with the latest Xcode.

I’ve been using Gnucash for about 5 years. The FinanceQuote module stopped working some time mid 2017. I’m only getting around to looking into it now.

During the last several Gnucash/FinanceQuote updates, I have had errors with the FinanceQuote update script timing out trying to download certain components. Unfortunately, I did not make a note of which ones. I would then have a broken FinanceQuote, and trying to run fc scripts, w.g. 

gnc-fq-dump 

or 

perl gnc-fq-dump 

return file not found errors. i have tried:

mdfind gnc-fq-dump

and confirmed that I don’t have gnc-fq-dump. Presumably the other scripts are missing too.


I just tried updating again, but now the script tells me FinanceQuote is up to date and their is nothing to do (although it never did run without timeouts on downloads). 

Can anyone suggest what the solution might be?

Thanks.
