------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
 gnucash installs four Perl scripts in ${prefix}/bin to install and
 administer gnucash's use of the perl Finance::Quote module. Following the
 instructions at GnuCash manual "8.6.3.1. Installing Finance::Quote":
 <http://svn.gnucash.org/docs/guide/invest-stockprice1.html#invest-
 stockprice-auto2>

 I ran:
 {{{
 % sudo gnc-fq-update
 Password:
 CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.19)

 }}}

 But the corresponding check failed:
 {{{
 % gnc-fq-dump
 /opt/local/bin/gnc-fq-dump cannot find all the Perl modules needed to run.
 You need to install the following Perl modules:
   Finance::Quote
   HTML::TableExtract
   Crypt::SSLeay
   Date::Manip
 Use your system's package manager to install them,
 or run 'gnc-fq-update' as root.
 }}}

 I believe the cause of the bug is that the file gnc-fq-dump is invoking
 the wrong Perl interpreter. It's asking for /usr/bin/perl, the standard
 Apple Perl interpreter with the standard Apple libraries. The other gnc-
 fq-* tools invoke /opt/local/bin/perl -w , the Perl and libraries
 installed by MacPorts.

 {{{
 % head -1 gnc-fq-*
 ==> gnc-fq-check <==
 #!/opt/local/bin/perl -w

 ==> gnc-fq-dump <==
 #!/usr/bin/perl

 ==> gnc-fq-helper <==
 #!/opt/local/bin/perl -w

 ==> gnc-fq-update <==
 #!/opt/local/bin/perl -w
 }}}

 I know very little about Perl and MacPorts, but in a bit of searching I
 didn't see an easy way to change the @INC path of /usr/bin/perl to include
 the MacPorts libraries. Thus it seems to me that the perl interpreter path
 in gnc-fq-dump should be changed to make its first line
 {{{
 #!/opt/local/bin/perl -w
 }}}
 instead of #!/usr/bin/perl .
