Crash on opening file with charts

Created attachment 169008 [details] File with multiple sheets and plots which can't be opened with 1.10.8 and 1.10.9, and windows error report When trying to open numerous files which were created in Gnumeric 1.10.6 and earlier there is an unspecified crash of Gnumeric 1.10.8 and 1.10.9. 1.10.9 runs in Win2k (unlike 1.10.8), but also crashes when opening the file. Sample file attached together with Windows error report from WinXP (SP2).
Created attachment 169009 [details] dr watson crash log These are the Dr Watson crash logs for the example file attached previously. They report a divide by zero occurring with both Win2K and WinXP. I noticed that the "321c_appcompat.txt" attached previously with the example file doesn't seem to have much useful information in it.
We are lucky. This is also crashing on Linux.

The problem was not in map_week_calc_ticks but in the fact that it got there. This problem has been fixed in our software repository. The fix will go into the next software release. Thank you for your bug report. Note: the fix is in goffice, not gnumeric.
If you need access to the data before the next release, you can edit the xml by hand. In this case, it isn't hard: 0. Make a backup 1. Rename PressureAltitudeTests-20100825.gnumeric to pat.gz 2. gzip -d pat.gz 3. Edit pat and change two occurrences of 0.04166... to 1 4. gzip pat 5. Rename back.
