Bug#509281: Lenny1 has the same problem!!!

Gnumeric 1.8.3-5 in Lenny1, as in Lenny rc1 at first, does not save Excel plots correctly. Upon saving them it ruins them. Gnumeric vers 1.6.3 in Etch r3 saves them perfectly.

Bug#509281: Workaround

This package downgrade fixed the problem: I removed the gnumeric 1.8.3 package from my Lenny rc1 installation and replaced it with the gnumeric 1.6.3 package which came with my original Etch DVD, following the instructions given in the Debian Reference at sections 6.2.5 and 6.3.3. Oliver H. LeBla
