Comment 1 Jon Kåre Hellan 2006-04-26 10:47:27 UTC

<jk_work> can you attach it?
<kmaraas> sorry, internal document for a tender :)
<kmaraas> can I get you more info from it though?
<jk_work> What does the link point at when you view it in {excel|OOo|gnumeric}?
<kmaraas> jk_work, it seems like it's a stale link to a non-existant sheet
<kmaraas> it says #'4.2.1'.A1
<kmaraas> and there's no sheet called 4.2.1 in this book

Comment 2 Jon Kåre Hellan 2006-04-26 11:06:20 UTC

gnumeric is run under an odd-numbered version of gnome-session, so  G_DEBUG='fatal_criticals' is set. The abort comes from a g_return_val_if_fail in value_new_cellrange_str. str is NULL.

Sigh. There must be hundreds of those.

Comment 3 Morten Welinder 2006-04-26 14:22:12 UTC

Fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major release. Thank you for your bug report.
