I rarely use Scribus-aqua, so I don't have a good sense of relative speed. Mv-ing .scribus didn't cure the problem with aqua. When starting Scribus-aqua, the splash screen is missing (a background does appear); the usual messages about fonts, etc., seem shifted to the far right so that they aren't completely visible. Console.app reports a long list of Unable to loads ... got null pixmap. The first few lines are shown below: scpaths: bundle at /sw/Applications/Scribus.app: scpaths: doc dir=/sw/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/scribus/ doc/ scpaths: icon dir=/sw/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/scribus/ icons/ scpaths: font dir= scpaths: sample dir=/sw/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/ scribus/samples/ scpaths: script dir=/sw/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/ scribus/scripts/ scpaths: template dir=/sw/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/ scribus/templates/ scpaths: lib dir=/sw/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/lib/scribus/ scpaths: plugin dir=/sw/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/lib/scribus/ plugins/ scpaths: qtplugins=/sw/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/lib/qtplugins/ Unable to load icon /sw/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/ scribus/icons/Splash.png: Got null pixmap ASSERT: "!pix.isNull()" in /sw/src/fink.build/scribus-aqua-1.3.4-1/ scribus-1.3.4/scribus/splash.cpp (21) Unable to load icon /sw/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/ scribus/icons/AppIcon.png: Got null pixmap Unable to load icon /sw/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/ scribus/icons/16/document-open.png: Got null pixmap . . .
