As I do not use Alphavantage, just 'Yahoo as json', why is it looking for an api key?

I don't think the version difference is a mystery - remember that Flatpak is a sandbox so presumably brings along whatever perl version it was built/packaged with.  If you set your Alphavantage api key in the Gnucash application itself you'll probably also also get rid of the other error message. The following is all I get displayed using Geert's command format:
flatpak run --command=gnucash-cli org.gnucash.GnuCash --quotes get -- '/home/h/Documents/GnuCash/Data Files/h.gnucash'
Found Finance::Quote version 1.5301.

Cheers David H.

I don't understand why, but "--" does also work, like "--namespace='.*'".

I still get a lot of errors that do not affect my quote fetch.
It finds 1.5301 even though I installed 1.5401, a different mystery!

Actually instead of adding a --namespace parameter, you can just use '--' to separate the named parameters from the positional parameters like so:flatpak run --command=gnucash-cli org.gnucash.GnuCash --quotes get -- /home/dgp/GnuCash/ubuntu-DGPickett.gnucash
That's a common unix way to solve such ambiquities.
