Yes, this no longer occurs, so your commit looks to have fixed it.  Thanks.

However, there are still some issues, but not affecting all stocks.

I don't use finance-quote, but instead use the other method, using
particular quote sources.  These sometimes stop working, when the
web-site changes its format.  However, I'm having some success with
quotes from Financial Times UK Funds.  Strangely, and outside of my
understanding, some securities work, while others don't.

Debugging is made more difficult because of changed behaviour on KF5.
What used to happen was that the import from the source web-site was
captured in a temp file, but this no longer occurs.  What happens
instead is that it appears on the system console.  That wouldn't be too
bad, but that doesn't occur at all for the files that I'm having trouble
with.  My regex expressions appear to be OK as they work for other files
from the source site.  So I'm a bit stumped, I'm afraid.
