Mh, that's not correct though?! How do you call this otherwise? https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/harfbuzz What is still missing is harfbuzz-subset, which will come with version 3 of it though. But it's an optional dependency so "can't be built" is surely wrong. > So now I have a nice new Scribus 1.5.8.svn (r24748) BTW, 1.5.7 is available from the Debian repositories, so unless you really have a need for the SVN snapshot you can probably make do with that. Uh, actually now I remember that Debian 11 only has 1.5.6.1… let me upload 1.5.7 to bullseye-backports. > Also installed the latest Ubuntu 21.04 or 21.10 then built Scribus on > that.
