gnumeric is Just Plain Broken in woody (see
http://ftp-master.debian.org/testing/testing_probs.html). There's not
much you can do, except perhaps grab the source and compile it yourself.
Unfortunately the unstable version is broken too (bugs #102406, #103776,
#104908), so it might be a while before it's fixed.
(Of course, if the libgal maintainer would maintain some kind of
backward compatibility, it would help. Grrr ...)
