Wow. That was a quick reponse! I installed the scrollkeeper package and re-installed gnumeric from binary and still got errors: Reading Package Lists... Building Dependency Tree... The following NEW packages will be installed: gnumeric 0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded. Need to get 0B/19.5MB of archives. After unpacking 57.0MB will be used. Selecting previously deselected package gnumeric. (Reading database ... 12621 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking gnumeric (from .../gnumeric_1.2.12-12_darwin-powerpc.deb) ... Setting up gnumeric (1.2.12-12) ... It still looks like nothing was downloaded. It only took 5 seconds before fink commander said done so I'm sure it didn't download much, if anything. When I tried running gnumeric from an X11 terminal, I got a ton of errors. A lot of them looked like this one: ** (gnumeric:3584): WARNING **: Unable to load key '/apps/gnumeric/core/ ow/zoom' : because Failed to launch configuration server: Failed to exec d process "/sw/lib/gconf2/gconfd-2" (No such file or directory) Is the gnumeric listing in fink just broken? Or am I doing something wrong? Thanks again!
