Is there a way to specify a version you dont want?  I have gnumeric
"pinned" at 1.0.12 as the current 1.0.13 can take 5 to 6 times as long
to load a large spreadsheet (same on Mandrake, so its the version, not
gentoo), but I am hoping things will improve for the next version as
1.1.19 seems to work. (I dont want to upgrade a lot of gnome libraries
to ~86 at the moment to install this - can someone confirm that 1.0.19
and ~86 stuff needed to run it works ok?)
