Dear Maintainers
Since a few days I am no longer able to get quotes from the Yahoo source:
gnc-fq-dump yahoo <any symbol> returns error messages.
For example, gnc-fq-dump yahoo CSCO returns:
===========================================================================================
No results found for stock CSCO, but results were returned for
the stock(s) <!doctype html><html lang="en-US"><head><meta
http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
charset=UTF-8"><title>Yahoo Search - Web Search</title><meta
name="description" content="The search engine that helps you find
exactly what you're looking for. Find the most relevant information.
Printing data for the first stock returned.
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
symbol: Yahoo Search - Web Search<meta name="description"
content="The search engine that helps you find exactly what you're
looking for. Find the most relevant information <=== required
date: 00/00/2000 <=== required
currency: FEATURES <=== required
last: images <=\
nav: <=== one of these
price: images <=/
timezone: <=== optional
===========================================================================================
Earlier, the Yahoo source worked perfectly fine. Other sources still
work, e.g. gnc-fq-dump currency EUR USD returns the conversion rate.
