I've been bumping into a problem running scripts with recent versions of
Scribus. When I attempt to run a script by "Script > Execute Script", I
get an error "scribus: Objects/stringobject.c:111: PyString_FromString:
Assertion `str != ((void *)0)' failed." I worked around this by placing
desired scripts in ~/.scribus/scripter.rc and using "Script > Recent Scripts".
This holds for 0.9.8 and 0.9.10, with Qt 3.1.1. I don't know what it does
with Qt-3.2beta as I have only just downloaded that source.
I finally spent some time poking into the scripting code. Since I don't
have Qt documents at hand, I've been groping my way in the dark. I was
able to find comparable code elsewhere and have developed the following
change which seems to fix the problem.
