Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

This is best explained by reference to an example.

Attached is a spreadsheet with a series of formulas (a1:a9) and a series
of data (b5:d7). The formulas refer to the data; aX = bY + cY + dY,
where Y is X + 4; in other words, A1 is B5 + C5 + D5, etc.

If you cut from C6 (a data cell, which A2 refers to) and paste into C8,
the formula in A2 is altered to B6 + C8 + D6, so the value in C8 is
counted twice (in A2 and in A4).

This is clearly buggy - I've never known any other spreadsheet app to
behave in this way. Cutting a data cell should NOT affect formula cells
(except to recalculate the formulas, perhaps.)

This is in Open Office 3.2.0, build 9483. Please fix!
