I concur. I also have some agreement with Mr. Williams who opened that bug. While I understand doing the quote retrieval natively in GnuCash would be problematic for how much they need to be changed (especially recently), I am at least slightly surprised there hasn't been an effort to replace F::Q with something written in Python or another language. macOS is macOS. They don't change anything for the hardware, not even the build: Everything in the OS is universal binaries with x86_64 snd arm64. It's possible that Xcode/command-line tools adds stuff to /System/Library/Perl/Extras, but the user said he has both installed. I've asked him about what year MBA and what version of macOS. Perhaps there's a clue there. I get the macOS is macOS thing. But I've ended up down too many rabbit holes because of assumptions that turned out wrong. I would find it odd that XCode would know to add stuff for Perl, but again, I don't want to assume it doesn't. As for XCode command line tools being installed, I would think if they were, then wouldn't the libssl header files that the user's cpan output indicated were missing *not* be missing? It's been a while since I installed Xcode and the extra XCode bits on either of the Macs in my possession. Take care sir.

Re: [GNC] Nothing Wrong
Piling on here. Compared to most software I use that's actively maintained, GnuCash is satisfyingly stable and functional. Seldom needs attention to anything other than my own bookkeeping errors. Thanks! And thanks also for this newsgroup! I've learned a few things about basic bookkeeping and accounting issues that are helpful, and go beyond what was in the books used in the basic classes back in the last century (real paper textbooks! early days of "pocket" calculators (I got a Commodore PR-100 while in the first semester; still have it, and it still works)!). In my case, I came to GnuCash from a spreadsheet-based home bookkeeping setup that had become just too complicated and unmaintainable. Spent more time fighting with formatting and broken formulae/links (it was multiple pages per multiple files all cross-linked with each other ... yeah, right) than with actually keeping the records. Spreadsheets were great for my limited needs in the '80s (Visicalc 1.0 on TRS-80) and '90s (Quattro Pro then Star/LibreOffice), but by 2020 I needed something real. Again, thanks! We don't say that often enough. Mike Brady From my ancient taglines file> bookkeepers prepare the ingredients, accountants do the cooking, auditors figure out the recipe.

From the command line prompt in the session, it appears the user having the issue is on a MacBook Air. I wonder if the included version of Perl is not the same as what gets installed on a MacBook? I'd be curious to see the output of this find command from that user's Mac. find /Library/Perl /System/Library/Perl -path '*/Net/*' -type f -name 'SSLeay.pm' Or more simply, does /System/Library/Perl/Extras exist on the user's MacBook Air?

Perhaps it is the source you are using for the Quotes that is reporting is USD?? When I look at my 5.6 Security setup, there is nothing about the stocks that say that they should be evaluated in USD. Nor is there anything in their related account in the investment account. Can you attempt to use different sources for the Finance::Quote? Another thought: Do you get the quotes from within GnuCash, or are you running the quotes manually (as with 'cron')? It may be that you have EUR set as the system currency in GnuCash, but the quote program isn't aware of the setting? -- _ Richard Losey rlo...@gmail.com Micah 6:8 ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
