Description أحمد المحمودي (Ahmed El-Mahmoudy) 2008-09-26 15:01:51 UTC 
Hello,

  There's a problem in gnucash's Get Quotes function (in Price List editor), I receive a wrong XAU to EGP conversion rate: I always get it as 4.0, while it should be 4,875.7 according to: http://finance.yahoo.com/currency/convert?amt=1&from=XAU&to=EGP&submit=Convert
Comment 1 Andreas Köhler 2008-09-28 13:06:54 UTC 
That is a Finance::Quote bug, as the data arriving at gnc-fq-helper is already truncated to 4.  You can see that when you check $exchange_rate and ($exchange_rate * $amount) in Finance/Quote.pm, sub currency, just before the final return.

Thanks for the report nonetheless.
