if mattia (the debian / ubuntu maintainer) says that it's a good idea, i will make a patch that disables this tab at compile time. i don't think that this tab is useful on linux, with appimages and a few other use cases. https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=16029 > Unfortunately, the Ubuntu world has gotten quite complicated with > flatpacks, snaps and appimages, which do not follow (and usually > conflict with) APT guidelines.
