Gretl with dbnomics works very well for me and I`m very happy with

But sometimes it is not possible to retrieve time series which are in
the databank of dbnomics and can be retrieved on their web site correctly.
For instance a regular script "data
ECB/BSI/M.U2.N.R.LRE.X.1.A1.3000.Z01.E" does not work for this time
series in gretl.
That should now be fixed with an update to the gretl dbnomics package,
version 0.36. You can update via /Help/Check for addons.
The problem was that this series was not being given with a full
calendar (missing observations just skipped), but it turns out there's
a parameter we can add to the dbnomics JSON query to ensure a complete
calendar.
