Everytime it updates, it has a tendency to rev its shared library number. Sounds like Gnumeric is linked against the older version of gal. Since GNOME wants all of its components to be up-to-date and in sync, you should probably cvsup the latest ports tree (Gnumeric is up to 1.0.3), and rebuild Gnumeric against the latest libgal (with is libgal.so.19 as of this writing). If you're using GNOME, a good way to do the update is: portupgrade -r ORBit If you just want Gnumeric, use portupgrade -R gnumeric. The portupgrade tool can be found in sysutils/portupgrade.
