What version of Scribus are you using? I have used it a fair amount,
but always the ScribusNG package. I have never had any problem with it
at all. First on Debian Lenny, recently on Debian Squeeze. A quick look
at the Ubuntu forums didn't turn up any recent complaints about crashes.
Also, the Scribus website has just announced a bug-fix version 1.3.6.
Since LyX/LaTeX have usually been sufficient for my publishing
needs, I have never been a heavy user of it, so maybe I just haven't hit
the wall. Still, seems surprising to me since I have had very good
results when I have used it.
Cheers,
Alan
