Sorry not to have replied earlier: I was traveling with a hard-to-type- on tablet. According to my notes from the last time I fixed Finance::Quote on Tumbleweed (it has *never* worked with openSUSE out of the box for me): 1. Install perl CPAN: "sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell" 2. Try to install Finance::Quote from the CPAN shell: "install Finance::Quote" 3. This will probably end in error because some other stuff needs to be installed first. You're well experienced and will be able to figure this out. I had to install several prerequisits the last time I did it. CPAN error messages are wordy but will guide you. 4. Test the result with "gnc-fq-dump yahoo CVX" from the command line. This should fetch the price of a big evil oil company. I had to go though the same process with this Arch derivative. The maintainers apparently don't test F::Q. HTH -- N. B.
