Re: Is Gnumeric _NOT_ for Windows users?

None of the core developers are building under windows, and hence

builds.  It is easy to assume a viable automake/autoconf/libtool
environment.  Under windows that assumption fails, and there is some
significant startup work to do.

However, your larger point is correct.  We need to be able to test
under windows.  I'll give it a try.
I'm well aware that the devs don't use windows but please don't ignore user input and most important of all: don't dismiss a bug as solved until it is tested by someone actually using the Windows build (BTW thank you again for bothering to build a binary)
I have been warning about a bug in the graphics module since 1.7.2... still not solved in 1.7.10 although the bug report was dismissed as solved.
Is this the missing plugin problem
No, it is the "Charting dialog is empty" bug (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=394183)
