Hi, Kalpash, sorry for the delay getting back to you, I haven't had time
to look at my Gnucash problems for a few days.

Is there any specific reason you are averse to installing homebrew and

This, from John Ralls:

If you have more than one perl installed make sure to only use
/usr/bin/perl and /usr/bin/cpan because they’re the only ones that
GnuCash can see when it’s launched from Finder
And this from the Gnucash documentation that John linked to in that email:
Perl runtime location
The gnc-fq-update script always runs the macOS system Perl runtime
(/usr/bin/perl), and disregards the Perl installed by package
managers. Doing so ensures GnuCash, when launched from Finder, can
locate Finance::Quote correctly.
It would probably be possible to hack the #! in gnc-fq-update to point
to an alternative perl, but I don't know whether there would be any
unexpected repercussions.
Cheers,
Peter
