Re: Segmentation faults: Debian unstable and gnumeric 1.0.5



Thank you, Ray:

My system is pretty stable, otherwise.  I have just caught up on the updates, and will restart gnumeric 
(although it's up to date already) and reinstall if necessary.  I haven't used gnumeric since the last about 
late January/early February, but I haven't seen any of this since 1.0, and have used gnumeric for grades 
since before then.  

Meanwhile, this seems to be controllable by saving frequently.  

If necessary, I'll back out to 1.0.4.  

Gnumeric is getting alot better.  Noticed today, it's a bit slow to set column formats, involving opening up 
a menu, setting, and applying.  Of course, this is no worry at all.  I like that graphing is at least 
working, and I'll try to graph grades this time; in the past, I've used gnuplot.

Thanks again

Alan Davis

Not Good (TM). Is your system stable otherwise?
http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/ details a number of hardware and software
problems known to cause fairly subtle problems like "random" crashes.

I am working on grades; this is a problem.  Perhaps I need to downgrade?

Testing currently still has 1.0.4; it would be a useful data point to know
if you experience the same problems with that version.

Is this something that is known about?  

I've received no reports about the Debian 1.0.5 package being problematic,
nor have I seen reports of 1.0.5 in general behaving flaky.
