[PLUG] debian && !gnumeric ?

[Jeff Abrahamson <jeff@purple.com>]

I'm running debian testing (woody).

And so it comes to pass: gnumeric depends on libgal4, but libgal4
doesn't exist. Does this make sense? Is something amiss? Gnumeric
seems pretty fundamental.

Do other people here use gnumeric with debian testing?

diderot:~# apt-get install gnumeric
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  gnumeric: Depends: libgal4 but it is not installable
E: Sorry, broken packages
diderot:~# apt-get install libgal4 
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Package libgal4 has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and
never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents
of sources.list
E: Package libgal4 has no installation candidate
