compile of goffice asking for librsvg-2.0 but apt-get install can't find

[dwturner]

I'd like to install the latest gnumeric, which requires goffice. ./configure for goffice returns

No package 'libgsf-1' found
No package 'librsvg-2.0' found

apt-get install reports no such packages available, to wit, regarding the first:

Package libgsf-1 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However, the following packages replace it:
libgsf-bin:i386 libgsf-bin libgsf-1-common

E: Package 'libgsf-1' has no installation candidate

And regarding the second:

E: Unable to locate package librsvg-2.0
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'librsvg-2.0'

Please advise. Many thanks.

Ahh. Thank you, thank you, dino99!

Sorry, but I'm a novice.

Would you (or someone) translate "into the repo"? I tried apt-get install again with "librsvg2.x", "librsvg2", "librsvg2.0", "librsvg2.1". No joy.

And, I looked at the launchpad link so kindly provided. I'm not confident I follow everything there, but it looks to me that the latest version of Gnumeric, 1.12.1, hasn't been reported to have been installed by anyone on Ubuntu 12.04. (I have an AMD64 machine.)

Is my quest hopeless?

Thanks in advance.
