aagggghhh.
OS 10.4.3, latest unstable tree all updated, XOrg, Gnome
Scribus 1.3.1-2
Spent 12/31/05 going through the scibus tutorial at http://
docs.scribus.net/
Tutorial referenced an earlier version, but I was able to produce a
document which duplicated the sample presented in the tutorial.
I decided to apply my newly-learned "skills" to produce a template
for a newsletter. Layer 1 had 2 graphics and border lines. Layer 2
had a text area with basic header information.
Layer three was supposed to be a text area with two columns. There
seemed to be a problem defining the columns; I tried everything I
could think of, including going back to the tutorial and duplicating
the steps given there. I decided it would be good to take a break so
I saved the document and quit Scribus.
Later, when I went back and attempted to open the document, Scribus
quit with a kern protection failure error. When I started Scribus up
again and tried creating a new document with the default settings,
XDarwin quit with a kern invalid address error. Scribus appears to
load as usual (the "New Document" window appears)
The two error reports are shown below; I don't know what to make of
them.
Other XDarwin apps appear to work as expected- e.g., XEphem,
Gnumeric, Gimp (although I didn't try it extensively).
I have tried repairing permissions, single-user boot w/ fsck,
reinstalling Scribus, rm -r the ~/.scribus directory, reinstalling
xorg all with out success.
Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
