[GNC] Finance::Quote not Working on Macbook

Is anyone else having trouble making F:Q work on a Mac?  If not, maybe you can help me—I’m new here and I just don’t ‘get it’!  

I’m using GnuCash_4.4 on Mac OS 10.14 (Mojave).  

I downloaded version 1.49 from SourceForge.  There’s an ‘Applications’ folder at the hard-drive level, and an ‘Applications’ folder at the User folder level; I’ve tried unzipping FQ into both directories and still have no success.  I read the GnuCash wiki on Online Quotes; I have perl installed; I used CPAN; I’m getting lost in the weeds.  The ‘Security Edit’ page (for any given security which I have set up) shows the Online Checkbox greyed-out with the same message familiar to us: “Warning: Finance::Quote not installed properly”.   I also tried running “gnc-fq-check“ and “gnc-fq-update” – No Joy! 

What am I missing?

 

Thanks much for anything you can tell me!!  (Pictures help – preferably in crayons or watercolors.)
