Difficulties installing Gnumeric

[Pete Crite]

Thanks Ryan,

I'll get my brother to download Xcode 2.5 and mail a DVD to me. It's  
a pity Apple don't release it as separate files without that  
documentation!

Did you know what the other SDK was that I would need for those  
ports? If I chose not to install Quicktime SDK and the other port, I  
assume that I would be informed by the relevant ports when the SDKs  
were lacking?

Thanks again,
Pete.
