Replying to an earlier message in the thread - I think I've made some  
progress.  With libalkimia freshly compiled from git head (8.1.20) and  
kmymoney also compiled from git head, I can click "Use Finance::Quote"  
on the Online Update page of the edit security wizard.  What seems to  
be the problem now is that the dropdown for "Online Source" shows a  
large number of sources (not sorted, so hard to navigate) and when I  
chekc one, it doesn't really seem to select just that one, but that one  
and all the following entries, so when I try to do a price update, I get

I'm not sure if the relevant code for this is within kmymoney or  
libalkimia - it will take some digging.

Thanks for your patience as we work through this.

Jack
