This is useful for mathematical analysis. &lfs70_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &gnumeric-md5sum; Download size: &gnumeric-size; Estimated disk space required: &gnumeric-buildsize; Estimated build time: &gnumeric-time; Gnumeric Dependencies Required , and Optional , ( with the libgsf-gnome-1 library from the package, for a GNOME-2 desktop), dblatex (for PDF docs), Gnome Basic (this package is no longer under active development), libgnomedb* (requires libgda), pxlib, Psiconv and * The libgda/libgnomedb stack required for Gnumeric database access may conflict with the versions used by the database plugin. Though the libraries themselves pose no conflict, the executables and support files may overwrite one another. Note that the current (version 4.1.x) stack does not support AbiWord database access. Though only a run-time dependency, if you don't install the package, the built-in help functionality in Gnumeric will not be available. User Notes: Installation of Gnumeric Install Gnumeric by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=&gnome-old-etc-dir; && \ make This package requires that it is installed before the test suite is run. The commands to run the tests are located a bit later in the instructions. If you run the tests now, two will fail with obscure messages about gconf (assuming that you installed that dependancy). Now, as the root user: make install Command Explanations : Use this switch if you have installed dblatex and wish to create PDF docs. Testing gnumeric If you wish to run the testuite, issue: make check All 11 tests (if you have installed the recommended dependencies) should pass (many tests are skipped because the xls files do not exist).
