In this case the installation worked without any problems.
I'm not very familair with apt-get (I'm a Fedora user), but it doesn't seem to like me either...
Or maybe I'm doing something stupid
At least the message "dpkg-deb (subprocess): error in buffer_read(stream): failed to write to pipe in copy: Input/output error" does not sound very nice - are you shure that you have enough space left for the packages?
I am also interested in the output of the following 2 commands:
apt-get install libgoffice-0-6
apt-get install libgsf-1-common

Thomas

xournal being installed has been conflicting with gnumeric. May want to start checking there. More info can be found searching the forums.

Gnumeric conflicting with Xournal?
The two most attractive applications (after Canola!) and we have to decide which to use and which to uninstall?
Tell me it isn't so!

I'd propose both Gnumeric and Xournal developers to consider uploading their packages into extras[-devel]. It's much more easy to see and resolve conflicts like this there. I'm pretty sure this wouldn't happen if they uploaded their packages into extras from the very beginning.

My last contact with Anidel was about two weeks ago, so i do no know if he did anything about this issue yet.

I have an hack on my n810 which allows me both. Basically, I changed the dependencies declared by libgoffice-0-6 making it accept the libart package used for anidel's xournal port. Look here: http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...1&postcount=98
Of course it's a hack and the mileage it allows may vary. So far, gnumeric seems to like it in my hands.

Thanks Chelli:
I appreciate the work you have put into gnumeric.
The app seems to work fine.
For people looking for a bit more than a simple budget spreadsheet this one seems to work fine.
https://www.pearbudget.com/spreadsheet/
I originally set it up on the laptop then transfered to n800.
Note: To get to the monthly sheets on the n800 go to
Format --> Sheet --> Manage Sheets and double click on the sheet you would like to access. I am sure there is an easier way, but it is eluding
me.
Enjoy and thanks
Al

From my testing, gnumeric will use xournal's libart successfully but xournal will not use gnumeric's libart. So if I install xournal first and then gnumeric, gnumeric will have an error on installation but will install and seems to work. Not vice versa though. So as a temporary work-around, you can install xournal first and then gnumeric and things should both start.
