CAVEAT:- I am not familiar with FlatPak.
1. See 3b.
2. I personally have no idea, but discussion on the pull request you
cited says YES.
3a.
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shirayu/finance-quote/9aee4b6d06da8a0e689b751d0e926160fb99d71b/lib/Finance/Quote/CurrencyRates/AlphaVantage.pm
3b. Follow these steps to locate and replace your current
AlphaVantage.pm file:-
3b.1 Save the file from 3a (plain text) as AlphaVantage.pm in a
temporary location.
3b.2 Find the current copy of AlphaVantage.pm on your machine - run
something like this command:
sudo find / -name AlphaVantage.pm -print
3b.3 Rename the current copy of AlphaVantage.pm in that location to
something like AlphaVantage.pm.BACKUP
3b.4 Copy the AlphaVantage.pm file from 3b.1 to that location.
4. If the above makes things worse, simply delete the new file and
rename the backup file.
Good luck!

I have installed my free AlphaVantage API key in /etc/environment, but when I try to "Get
Quotes", I get the well-known message "Unable to retrieve quotes for these items:,
CURRENCY: ...". I presume that this is due to the problem reported on the page
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Online_Quotes#Source_Alphavantage.2C_US:
GnuCash stopped being able to retrieve currency exchange rates using a free
AlphaVantage API key from about Aug 15 2022 because AlphaVantage made the
method F::Q used to obtain exchange rates unavailable for free API keys.
F::Q has been modified to work with free API keys and the fix should be
available in the next F::Q version (1.53).
<<
By running "gnc-fq-check" in a console running "flatpak run --command=sh org.gnucash.GnuCash" I found that the F::Q version in my
Flatpak installation is 1.49. Obviously, I would like to update F::Q to version 1.53. I tried running "gnc-fq-update" from within
"flatpak run --command=sh org.gnucash.GnuCash", but it fails from a normal account (presumably due to inadequate priveleges), and "sudo
flatpak run --command=sh org.gnucash.GnuCash" doesn't work either, nor does running "flatpak run --command=sh org.gnucash.GnuCash" after
having used "su <adminname>" to invoke it with higher privileges.
1. How can I update F::Q in my Flatpak installation?
2. Will this solve the problem? V1.53 isn't listed in either SourceForge or
metacpan.
3. I looked at the workaround
(https://github.com/finance-quote/finance-quote/pull/230), but it isn't clear
to me:
a. How to obtain the updated AlphaVantage.pm from github pull #230?
b. How to apply it to the flatpak environment?
