I have built myself a solution for this. I'm not certain why asking
gnucash to add the price quotes hangs for me. However I found that if I
used Python to call the perl script for each individual stock and then
the GNUCash Python API to write the information it all works.

Isn't aqbanking used to get information directly out of banks rather
than needing to download QFX files? If so, I don't see how that is

According to gnc-fq-check I have 1.47. The 5 quotes/minute restriction
would explain why when I ran the gnc-fq-dump commands manually I didn't

I'm using GnuCash 2.6.19 that ships with Ubuntu 18.04. I'm finding that
the update price quotes process is hanging, both from within GnuCash and
from the command line.
I've created a CSV file of all of my commodities and tested them
individual using gnc-fq-dump and they all return fairly quick
