Package: gnumeric
Version: 1.7.12-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

Thanks for maintaining debian's gnumeric package.

It's handy.

gnumeric was always slow to add rows to a certain
spread sheet, but soon after I specified ranges
with the unusual whole row/column (example:
"$A:$A") and either 

    a.) loaded that certain spread sheet's file,
    or 
    
    b.) when typing text into a certain cell.

gnumeric started intermittently crashing with the
following stack trace:

    "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".

I tried upgrading 

    libglib2.0-dev from 2.14.0-2 to 2.14.1-5
    libglib2.0-0   from 2.14.0-2 to 2.14.1-5

and installing version 2.14.1-5 of
libglib2.0-data, but then my entire computer hung,
except for a podcast that xmms was playing. It was
left looping through a about two second length of
audio.

The spread sheet file that elicits the bug has a
compressed size of 2.7 MB, contains several
individual spread sheets, and is unfortunately
confidential. 

If I recall correctly, one spread sheet in the
file has over 7,000 rows and 140 columns. 

Another spread sheet has large expressions in most
of its cells, possibly 2,000 bytes per cell. 

I haven't tried cutting down the spread sheets to
isolate the bug, but I might, or I may downgrade
gnumeric and its dependencies from experimental to
unstable, or simply restore an old version of the
spreadsheets from a backup and convert them to
.xls for oocalc <sigh>.

Thanks,
Kingsley

OK, I will close it now.

If it reoccurs with current packages, please open a new bug report,
preferably in GNOME bugzilla (with me on Cc if you suspect the issue is
related to Debian's packaging of gnumeric).

Kind regards,
