able to open xls files. Which particular release of Ubuntu and specific
package versions is this still an issue for?

problems in the dev series and fixed long ago.
If you can repeatably cause the disabling please supply details on the

Hi Jody I am not sure if you are referring to me with this line:

Ok some good news, this morning I fixed both of the above problems as
follows (plugin manager active plugins stay and File-Preferences works,
btw unless I was dreaming I am pretty sure I had the same exact problem
in the gnumeric deb package too and it should be fixed the same way).

I most certainly DO NOT work for macuto! We don't need false info. here.
If macuto has mis-communicated, he should re-post with much greater
clarity.

time to trace it down further.

In this context macuto probably means that opening .xls files works for
him

macuto, that's quite a screenshot. Thanks for your help I think the

employed by macuto. Just fyi.

I will also see if I can access the plugin manager on the Gutsy machine
(it is unfortunately no longer close by, but I still have access to it).
I'll try to report back in a couple of days so that this can be sorted
out and closed.

Sorry by my English, maybe is not clear. I am glad you can open the

Thanks. Now I am having some other weird problems though.
I have to activate the plugins in plugin manager _every time_ I start gnumeric.
I tried erasing ~/.gnumericrc but
it didn't help.
Also, if I go to File - Preferences... I get a crash and a core dump
every time:
[2]+ Segmentation fault
So on my amd64 system unfortunately having gnumeric or gnumeric-gtk I
still can't open or save XLS files. This is quite annoying as I like
gnumeric a lot more than oo spreadsheet for graphs. Thanks.

Looks like the following submission from 2007-11-16 did not get into the

I checked that the gnumeric-plugins-extra were installed before testing.
Then I uninstalled and reinstalled gnumeric (only)

I have just confirmed that gnumeric+gnumeric-plugins-extra still gives
unsupported file format for xls
files on my Gutsy system, while gnumeric-gtk seems to work fine.
