Re: how to convert VB scripts to Gnumeric python

Turned out the be a problem in my package builder -- I suspect I'm 
missing some part of the toolchain as the "@YELP_HELP_RULES@" line in 
the doc makefile was breaking with a missing separator warning.

This was added since 1.12.32, presumably installing yelp-tools will fix 
this?

Commented it out and I'm up an running. I also updated goffice for good 
measure.

basic and simple tests pass now with no issue. On io test I'm getting:

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "t3002-introspection-io.py", line 25, in <module>
     wbv = Gnm.WorkbookView.new_from_uri (src_uri, None, ioc, None)
TypeError: constructor returned NULL

The plugin test is failing as well, but this is very likely due to me 
missing some components (I only use Gnumeric, not gnome) and this isn't 
an especially great concern in my use case.
