Description Lou 2012-09-06 12:54:00 UTC
When opening the attached document on fedora 16 the following error is encountered:


'ex_fairway!#REF!' Invalid expression
Comment 1 Morten Welinder 2012-09-06 18:11:29 UTC
I see no document attached.  Please retry that.
Comment 2 Morten Welinder 2012-09-09 11:45:02 UTC
File received by mail.  It's big.
Comment 3 Morten Welinder 2012-09-12 23:01:58 UTC
We get a whole pile of those errors on stderr:

While I still remember: the whole problem is that we don't parse the
sheet+#REF! invalid reference seen above.  It'll need some non-trivial
mangling of code to get 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.
