Binary package hint: gnumeric
What is expected to happen is when one opens a blank workbook, enter in a cell 0.265, and format the cell as a percentage with zero decimal places, it displays 27%.
What happens instead is it displays 26%.
This erroneous rounding does not happen with 0.275, 0.285. I've found a few other values where this happens, eg 0.625.
This has happened since gnumeric 1.7.8-0ubuntu1.1 in Hardy.
WORKAROUND: Use LibreOffice Calc, or MS Excel via WINE.
