Description Morten Welinder 2008-02-25 02:50:01 UTC
We allocate memory for boolean values.  That is pointless as there should
only be two different values.  ("Should": the Excel plugin seems to be able
to create at least 256 different.)

Note the sylk change.  With the patch we fail the sylk test, but I like
the final result better.

I committed the sylk importer changes to both branches.  We certainly want
that part.
Comment 3 Morten Welinder 2008-03-12 14:02:33 UTC
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
