[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Gnumeric 1.6.2 and goffice 0.2 Released

[From: Eduardo de Barros Lima]

Hi Larry,

   Gnumeric really crashes when selecting Format->Cells in the menu.
While I was building the package, I was searching for unused files
that might be deleted to save our precious space and then I have
deleted the goffice directory.

   I have built a new package and it is working fine now. It will be
uploaded to my webspace when I get home. Thank you very much for
reporting this.

   Best wishes, Eduardo (etrunko).
