Had the exact same problem the other day before presenting to the Getty
Foundation: Google changed the way they do address lookup (which is not
part of their stable API) and broke all versions of Piggy Bank before

My suggestion, for now, is to install a nightly build from:

(the last one, the one at the bottom should work)
Let us know how that went.
