Thanks John, I did in fact forget to replace the environment.local file after a fresh GnuCash install, but still no luck.
I’m trying to sort through dtruss output, but it is a bit difficult to sort out what is going wrong. Happy to receive additional suggestions. For the API keys, I wrote several of the new F::Q modules and choose not to support environment variables because it seemed like more services were going to require API keys and the number of environment variables would grow. So the only mechanism right now is to set the API key when instantiating an F::Q object. I saw that you commented one F::Q/issue/200 and indicated a new major release of GnuCash is in the works. Is F::Q going to continue to be the source for quotes in that version? Is so, I think there are at least two options for dealing with API keys - F::Q adds environment variables for every module that needs one and then GnuCash either continues to use something like the environment file or adds a preference where users can register environment variables, or, GnuCash adds a preference for registering API keys and those get routed to wherever the F::Q instance is created. The environment variables seem to cause users headaches to make sure they are set properly and survive GnuCash upgrades, but a separate GnuCash preference set of key/values for F::Q API keys is a lot more work for the GnuCash developers. I haven’t been active on F::Q development, but if there are changes that will help with the next GnuCash release, I’ll find time to help.
