Gnumeric 1.9.7 aka "TBD" is now available.
The Gnumeric Team is pleased to announce the availability of Gnumeric version 1.9.7. This release requires the concurrently released goffice 0.7.6 and libgsf 1.14.13.
This is a bugfix release. The most notable fix is for a problem introduced in 1.9.4 causing xls files saved in Gnumeric not to be readable by Excel. Resaving with Gnumeric 1.9.7 fixes the issue.
Attention packagers: goffice no longer depends on libgnome, libgnomeui, and gnome-vfs. (To get the full benefit of this, make sure libgsf is not compiled to require gnome-vfs and bonobo.)
Attention packagers: please do not ship goffice with equation enabled.
