** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gnumeric
  
- Enter the value 0.265 in a cell. Format the cell as a percentage with zero 
decimal places - it will display as 26%.
- This erroneous rounding does not happen with 0.275, 0.285.
+ What is expected to happen is when one opens a blank workbook, enter in
+ a cell 0.265, and format the cell as a percentage with zero decimal
+ places, it displays 27%.
  
- I've found a few other values where this happens, eg 0.625
+ What happens instead is it displays 26%.
  
- This happens with all fairly recent versions of gnumeric I've tried,
- including gnumeric-gtk 1.8.2-1ubuntu1 and gnumeric 1.7.8-0ubuntu1.1
+ This erroneous rounding does not happen with 0.275, 0.285. I've found a
+ few other values where this happens, eg 0.625.
  
- (The correct behaviour is observed in both Openoffice.org Calc, and in
- MS Excel.)
+ This has happened since gnumeric 1.7.8-0ubuntu1.1 in Hardy.
+ 
+ WORKAROUND: Use LibreOffice Calc, or MS Excel via WINE.
