I just installed F8/i86_64 on this computer and when I told it to install Scribus I got 1.3.4. To get 1.3.3.9 I had to compile it myself. A chap who advertises on my theatre flyer just sent me his copy for the December flyer. It didn't open. I checked what he sent me, it's from 1.3.4. I called him to ask what's what, and he said that his Ubuntu had just done an automatic update and he got 1.3.4 from that, by magic. I told him to back it off again which he did and all is well. But how many other folks will be bitten by that as well.... -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
