Dear Bruce
Thank you for your prompt and helpful reply. To answer your question an extract from perl -V shows : @INC: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.26.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.26.1 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.26 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.26 /usr/share/perl/5.26 /usr/local/lib/site_perl /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base So ‘home/perl5/lib/perl5/ ‘ is not part of my INC path . I decided to correct by running ‘ sudo cpanm Finance::Quote ‘ as this was simpler for a perl noob. I now have a working FQ 1.51 . Thank you once again. ________________________________ From: Bruce Schuck <bsch...@asgard-systems.com> Sent: 27 February 2022 22:54 To: gnucash-user@gnucash.org <gnucash-user@gnucash.org> Cc: James Edmunds <jimmy...@hotmail.co.uk> Subject: Re: [GNC] Upgrade to GC 2.6.19 and Finance:Quote 1.51 > From: James Edmunds <jimmy...@hotmail.co.uk> > I have just upgraded from Ubuntu 16.04 to 18.04.

With Perl, "correctly" can be a subjective term. Both cpan and cpanm can be configured to install Perl Modules in different locations including the default Perl include path (@INC). My guess is that although cpanm installed FQ in /home/perl5/lib/perl5/Finance/Quote (is that /home/perl5/... or /home/<yourlogin>/...), that directory is not part of your INC path (what is the output of "perl -V"?). I also would not be surprised if cpanm did not install some other modules underneath /home/perl5/lib/perl5. I would try the following. Add "export PERL5LIB=/home/perl5/lib/perl5" to your "~/.bashrc" file and "PERL5LIB=/home/perl5/lib/perl5" /etc/gnucash/environment. Log out and back in that try gnc-fq-check. Or run cpanm as root or with the "--sudo" option. Hope this helps. - Bruce S. _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
