Thanks much. That eventually got me to <ftp.gnome.org> where I found sources. (I don't understand why a search of <gnu.org> didn't yield anything.) Using RPMs is nearly always preferable-- for it makes package/systems management much easier. There are sites offering gnumeric RPMs, but, for me at least, known reputable sites satisfy security concerns.
