[GNC] Security pricing sources

[David Carlson]

Kalpesh,

I cannot speak to your specific question, but I can report that I am
running GnuCash 4.8 in Ubuntu 22.04, and I was able to successfully find
and edit the YahooJSON.pm file (as root) per Bruce Schuck's instructions in
the "...throwing unauthorized error" thread of this maillist.  Doing that
restores functionality of the Finance:Quote module within GnuCash.
