Wow. That was a quick reponse!

I installed the scrollkeeper package and re-installed gnumeric from binary and
still got errors:


Reading Package Lists...
Building Dependency Tree...
The following NEW packages will be installed:
gnumeric
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B/19.5MB of archives. After unpacking 57.0MB will be used.
Selecting previously deselected package gnumeric.

Unpacking gnumeric (from .../gnumeric_1.2.12-12_darwin-powerpc.deb) ...

It still looks like nothing was downloaded. It only took 5 seconds before fink
commander said done so I'm sure it didn't download much, if anything.

You didn't download anything. The package was downloaded during your initial attempt to install it, and the same file (saved in a cache directory for this very purpose) was used this time. This is normal.



When I tried running gnumeric from an X11 terminal, I got a ton of errors. A lot
of them looked like this one:


** (gnumeric:3584): WARNING **: Unable to load key '/apps/gnumeric/core/
ow/zoom' : because Failed to launch configuration server: Failed to exec
d process "/sw/lib/gconf2/gconfd-2" (No such file or directory)



This, on the other hand, is _not_ normal. Do you have the gconf2 package installed? (That's where /sw/lib/gconf2/gconfd-2 comes from)


Is the gnumeric listing in fink just broken? Or am I doing something wrong?


It looks like the binary distribution version of gnumeric is missing some dependency listings, so you didn't get some packages you really need to have for it to run.


Thanks again!
Tom
