out why it works for me and not for you, if you want to spend some
effort.
When I google for your error
I/O error : Attempt to load network entity
It is a widely discussed problem. Obviously, there is some RPM that
exists on my system that does not exist on yours, or you are
firewall-blocked from allowing the install to work in the way it
intends. I really don't think this is a fault of the gnumeric RPM I
provide.
Perhaps one approach is to find out if you have the docbook stuff
installed. On the system where I built that RPM, I have:
$ rpm -qa | grep docbook
docbook-dtds-1.0-30.1
docbook-utils-0.6.14-5.1
docbook-simple-1.0-2.1.1
docbook-style-xsl-1.69.1-5.1
docbook-slides-3.3.1-2.1.1
docbook-style-dsssl-1.79-4.1
>From Googling, I also form the opinion that XML processing is related,
so lets compare versions:
]$ rpm -qa | grep xml
xmlsec1-1.2.9-8.1
libxml2-2.6.26-2.1.2.1
xmlsec1-devel-1.2.9-8.1
xml-commons-1.3.02-0.b2.7jpp.10
xml-common-0.6.3-18
xml-commons-resolver-1.1-1jpp.12
libxml2-devel-2.6.26-2.1.2.1
libxml2-python-2.6.26-2.1.2.1
xml-commons-apis-1.3.02-0.b2.7jpp.10
Another possible check is to try to debug the gnumeric that you say
crashes. Unfortunately, "crash" is a very vague term. Does the
installed gnumeric find all of the required libraries? What do you
see like this? Do you see any "missing" or "???"
