davidpbrown, good catch on deleting the space removes the last
character! Since this bug has enough information provided for a
developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as Triaged and let them
handle it from here. Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: openoffice.org
  
- If one cell contains a formula ="test" and that cell is then copied and
- the content pasted into the 'input line' bar, so that the value only is
- pasted, there is then a white space apparent in the 'input line' bar.
+ 1) lsb_release -rd
+ Description:  Ubuntu 11.04
+ Release:      11.04
  
- That whitespace doesn't disappear on exit+reentry to the cell and when
- it's deleted, rather than remove whitespace, results in the last
- character from the real cell's content being removed rather than any
- whitespace that the input bar suggests is there. This isn't obvious
- until you exit+reenter the cell and find the content truncated.
+ 2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer

+ 3) What is expected to happen is if one copies a cell containing "test",
+ and paste it into the 'input line' bar, just test is pasted.
+ 
+ 4) What happens instead is that a space is appended to the end of test.
+ If one backspaces or deletes the space, the last character is deleted.
+ 
+ WORKAROUND: Paste into the desired cell directly, not the Input Line.
