Description Michael Ballou 2021-11-10 06:19:47 UTC

Description of problem:

First discovered when using GnuCash. Attempted to use the GnuCash -> Tools -> Price Database -> Get Quotes function to update securities prices and observed an error dialog reporting "Unable to retrieve quotes for these items." Filed a bug with the GnuCash project (see https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798364) and through that bug discovered the problem was with the perl-Finance-Quote component.

Bottom line, the perl-Finance-Quote component (the Perl Finance::Quote module) was unable to retrieve quotes from Yahoo Finance. See Additional Info section for the fix.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

perl-Finance-Quote-1.51-1.fc35.noarch

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Fresh clean install of Fedora 35
2. sudo dnf install gnucash
3. gnc-fq-dump yahoo_jason VTI

Actual results:

gnc-fq-dump was unable to retrieve price quotes.

Expected results:

gnc-fq-dump was successfully able to retrieve price quotes.

Additional info:

Through the bug filing at https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798364, I discovered that the perl-Finance-Quote component actually depends on the perl-LWP-Protocol-https component but the perl-LWP-Protocol-https component is not installed as a dependency of perl-Finance-Quote.

To reproduce, I restarted from a fresh clean install of Fedora 35 and this is what I found:

1. Fresh clean install of Fedora 35
2. sudo dnf install gnucash
3. gnc-fq-dump yahoo_jason VTI ### Error, no quotes
4. sudo dnf install perl-LWP-Protocol-https
5. gnc-fq-dump yahoo_jason VTI ### Success, getting quotes!!!

Suggest updating the packaging of perl-Finance-Quote to have perl-LWP-Protocol-https as an explicit dependency.

Comment 5 Michael Ballou 2021-11-10 22:02:22 UTC

Haha, ya, but still, you could have sat on it for a week or two but you didn't! There were so few previous issues with this component I was almost afraid there was no one out there to make the fix, it was just on autopilot or something. Thanks again!
