It worked for me on Kubuntu 10.04. The biggest problem was to find the names of the missing packages - it seems that the typical naming convention for developer library packages had been changed from '<package>-devel' to 'lib<package>-dev'. I used exactly these steps: # get all missing packages (revealed by running 'cmake'): sudo apt-get install cmake sudo apt-get install qt4-qmake sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev sudo apt-get install libcairo2-dev sudo apt-get install libcups2-dev sudo apt-get install libboost-dev sudo apt-get install aspell-de (???) sudo apt-get install libaspell-dev sudo apt-get install libpodofo-dev "download scribus-1.3.9.tar.bz2 from sourceforge to HOME" tar -jxvf scribus-1.3.9.tar.bz2 cd scribus-1.3.9 sudo mkdir /home/prog/scribus-1.3.9 cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/home/prog/scribus-1.3.9 -DWANT_CAIRO=1 make sudo make install bye Andreas -- Andreas H?nnebeck | email: acmh at gmx.de ----- privat ---- | www : http://www.huennebeck-online.de Fax/Anrufbeantworter: +49 (32 12) 1 26 24 06 PGP-Key: http://www.huennebeck-online.de/public_keys/pgp_andreas.asc GPG-Key: http://www.huennebeck-online.de/public_keys/andreas.asc
