Wish I knew what caused the problem so I could file a bug report. Oh well. Thanks for the tip. Problem solved. Of course, I after nuking the ~/.scribus folder I had to go in and recreate all my preferences. One does not seem to be working - Display Margins. I left it at the default and the margins showed up dark blue. All I wanted was a line in a different color showing where the margins were. So I set the margin color to white (same as the page area), thinking that this might then show a thin blue line that had been obscured by the blue color before. But it made the the margins invisible. So I went back and set the margin color to yellow (less of a blast to the eyes than the dark blue), and now margin color will not display at all, no matter what color I set it to.
