Hi,
I have volunteered to give a hand-job on gnumerics spec previously but I
have failed in that, sorry. I'll dedicate more time to it (I hope I can
easily compile gnumeric on my home computer).
I'm not interested at all in making a RPM spec for GNUMERIC+ABIWORD
(that would be really dumb, package-unwise and Microsoft-like).
What could probably be done is a zenity-sized shell program that would
fetch official RPMS from the web sites and them rpm -ivh or dpkg-install
(or whatever) but I'm not sure if I could handle it or if doing it this
way would be a good idea.
Rui
