Not sure how that will help -- gnumeric is looking for a dbus socket.   In
my user
account if I execute

launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist

then ssconvert works file.

But there doesn't seem to be a way to do that for _www

I admit this whole goffice thing is a bit of a mystery to me.  One thing I
don't like
about OS X is how many linux apps need some sort of special handling.
