[GNC] gnucash finance quote not installed properly

[David G. Pickett]

Good question!  I have been running it for so long, I am not sure!  It is 3.900 build id: git 3.7-222-gae3bb9892+(2019-09-29), and software update may have installed changes.  I was trying to get past a crash in update scheduled template transaction recently, may have installed some deb, and finally found an older version to run to do the update on.  Maybe I can point the quotes to an older version.  That was 2/23-2/24, btw.

The error messages all indicate some required libraries are missing on your 
system; required in the sense that gnucash can't run without those.

So what happened on 1/23 that changed this ? Did you perform a system update 
that removed a number of libraries, did gnucash get updated at that time ?

Would also be interesting to know how you got gnucash installed. Does it come 
from the ubuntu repos, is it a flatpak or a snap ? Did you build gnucash 
yourself ?

Regards,

Geert
