It's a defect in the Debian packages, see my bug reports on Launchpad and Debian: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnumeric/+bug/1006242 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=723903 Unfortunately, my bug reports concerning this matter have been largely ignored so far. :( Other major Linux distributions like Arch, Fedora and openSUSE all include the libspreadsheet development files. For Debian-based distributions, you need to compile and install Gnumeric from source, or you can use my Gnumeric packages for Ubuntu 10.04, 11.04, 12.04, 12.10 and 13.04 at https://launchpad.net/~dr-graef.
