Package: gnumeric
Version: 1.4.1-1
Severity: normal
When upgrading gnumeric (I'm tracking unstable) I didn't notice that an
instance of gnumeric was running in the background, and actually had
some unsaved changes.
After the upgrade, it was impossible to save the changed worksheet,
as gnumeric tried to access some external resource file, which was
not available any more.
I decided that the changes were minor and could be redone easily. So I
closed gnumeric. Unfortunately, I only noticed afterwards that the data
file was completely empty (0 bytes), so the unsuccessful attempt to save
the file probably destroyed the old version.
While it's probably very unwise to upgrade a running application, most
linux programs handle this case very well, as old versions of binaries
and libraries are kept open and therefore survive the removal of the
directory links, until the last instance of the program terminates.
I'm unsure about the right severity of this bug. It could be classified
higher (as it causes data loss), but I think the bug gets triggered
quite rarely, so I rated it as 'normal'.

Closes: 286563 290508 339925 341572
Changes:
gnumeric (1.6.1-2) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* [debian/gnumeric.templates, debian/gnumeric.preinst] New. Make a
reasonable effort attempt to give the administrator the option of aborting
an installation when there are running gnumeric processes (as those
processes may not be able to function properly (in particular, save their
data) when gnumeric is upgraded). (Closes: #286563, #290508)
* [debian/rules] Added dh_installdebconf calls.
* [debian/control] Added Suggests: debconf.
* [debian/control] Dropped gnumeric-common Depends: gnumeric as it causes a
circular dependency which is problematic in some upgrade scenarios.
(Closes: #339925)
* [debian/control] Added gnumeric-doc Suggests: docbook-xsl for the
(navigation) images in the documentation. Made this a Suggests: rather
than a Recommends: dependency as Recommends: dependencies are difficult to
avoid in many package management frontends and the Recommends: of
docbook-xsl itself (in particular: httpd) are not desirable on many
systems. (Closes: #341572)
