Josh or anybody else, First I want to thank Josh for his attention to this bug. I looked at the following URL: ??? https://github.com/joshuaulrich/quantmod/issues/197 and I see the following: I just pushed an update to the|197_getQuote|branch. Please test and provide feedback! There is one minor issue regarding the "Last Time" field. It's currently in your local timezone, not the exchange timezone. The fix needs to account for the possibility that users may request multiple symbols, and those symbols may be from exchanges in different timezones. You cannot mix timezones in a|POSIXct|vector, so we need to check whether all the timezones are the same, and convert them to a common timezone if they are not. What I do not know is how to get this update? I have run the following command:? update.packages() However, this command updates all packages and I do not believe I can specify the particular branch 197_getQuote. What should I do? Bob Sherry

There is one minor issue regarding the "Last Time" field. It's currently in
your local timezone, not the exchange timezone. The fix needs to account for
the possibility that users may request multiple symbols, and those symbols
may be from exchanges in different timezones. You cannot mix timezones in a
POSIXctvector, so we need to check whether all the timezones are the same,
and convert them to a common timezone if they are not.

Have you tried what's suggested in the README.md? I've quoted the
relevant portion below:
Installation
The current release is available on CRAN, which you can install via:
install.packages("quantmod")
To install the development version, you need to clone the repository
and build from source, or run one of:
# lightweight
remotes::install_github("joshuaulrich/quantmod")
# or
devtools::install_github("joshuaulrich/quantmod")
