Can't tell about gnumeric but mozilla seems to use some of the fonts. > I tried to installing applesystemfonts (in /sw/lib/X11/fonts/) after I > was finished installing abiword, but I get the same illegal instruction > message: > > [Gary-K-Olsons-Computer:~]:-bash:503$: /sw/bin/abiword: line 14: 27797 > Illegal instruction /sw/lib/AbiSuite-2.0/AbiWord-2.0 $@ I reported something similar under 10.2-gcc3 unstable some time ago, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. But I seemed to be quite alone with the problem and Jeffrey Whitacker couldn't reproduce it. Note: My info file says that abiwords depends on applesystemfonts but I get a warning that applesystemfonts only allows things to build-depend on it. Strangely I was able to install it since (perhaps because I removed the .font-cache thing) but it still crashes when I try to launch it.
