19706	gnc-fq-dump (GnuCash) invokes Apple Perl, not MacPorts Perl	from.macports@…	macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org	"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:
{{{

But the corresponding check failed:
{{{

/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
}}}
