This is useful for mathematical analysis. 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 , (combined with the libgsf-gnome-1 library from the package will provide GNOME-2 support), libgnomedb* (requires libgda), pxlib, Psiconv, Hildon, Gnome Basic (this package is no longer under active development), and Valgrind (to run some of the testsuite) * 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 will overwrite one another. Note that the current (version 3.0.x) stack does not pose a conflict with any of the previous versions (but does not support Gnumeric or AbiWord database access. Gnumeric requires versions >1.2.x and <2.x.x (1.99.1 is known to work). 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-etc-dir; \ --localstatedir=/var/lib && 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. Now, as the root user: make install && If you have installed you can create an HTML version of the Help documentation by issuing the following commands: ./configure \ --prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix gnome-doc-utils) && make -C doc html If you created the HTML documentation, install it by issuing the following commands as the root user: install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/gnumeric-&gnumeric-version;/figures/icons && install -v -m644 doc/C/figures/*.png \ /usr/share/doc/gnumeric-&gnumeric-version;/figures && install -v -m644 doc/C/figures/icons/*.png \ /usr/share/doc/gnumeric-&gnumeric-version;/figures/icons && install -v -m644 doc/C/html/* \ /usr/share/doc/gnumeric-&gnumeric-version; && ln -v -s /usr/share/xml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets-&docbook-xsl-version;/images \ /usr/share/doc/gnumeric-&gnumeric-version;/stylesheet If you wish to install the Developer documentation, issue the following commands as the root user: install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/gnumeric-&gnumeric-version;/developer && install -v -m644 doc/developer/* \ /usr/share/doc/gnumeric-&gnumeric-version;/developer && rm -v /usr/share/doc/gnumeric-&gnumeric-version;/developer/Makefile* Command Explanations --prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix gnome-doc-utils): This rebuilds the Makefiles with the same prefix used in the GNOME Doc Utils installation. Testing gnumeric If you wish to run the testuite, issue: make check Two of the seven tests appear to fail because the csv files they use are missing, two others fail for unknown reasons.
