Gnucash - Missing Python's Gi, Perl-Finance-Quote

$ gnucash --debug
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/gnucash/python/init.py", line 6, in <module>
    from gi import require_version
ImportError: cannot import name 'require_version' from 'gi' (unknown location)

Causes a coredump.

$ sudo pacman -Sy perl-finance-quote
error: target not found: perl-finance-quote

Optional Deps   : gnucash-docs: documentation
                  libdbi-drivers: open and save data into SQL database
                  perl-date-manip: stock information lookups
                  perl-finance-quote: stock information lookups

EDIT0: `gi` issue was resolved with installation of `python-gobject`. Coredump was unrelated to that:

EDIT1: Renaming the .config and .local related gnucash folders, so it starts clean, took care of the coredump.
The missing dependencies are still an issue.

EDIT2: Renaming the .config back first, it crashed. So that issue relates to my `gtk-3.0.css`.

What does that have to do with anything mentioned in my OP?
Where do you see a partial upgrade having occurred?
`perl-finance-quote` doesn't exist as a package, even though it's mentioned as an "Optional Dependency".
Seeing the `gi` module message shows gnucash was looking for it, but is not mentioned as any kind of dependency. Gnucash will still load without it.

Good to know. I'm surprised it wasn't already removed. Thanks.
I know I had it installed in the past, but I had to rebuild my system after the cryptfs/integrity failed. I do think I may vaguely recall having to manually change things like Toolybird had mentioned. I just don't think I put down what I did in my notes.
I know I can manually install it (as I've done before), but found it odd the package was listed when it didn't exist.
