Hi Scribus maintainers,

It looks like the upstream 1.5.x development branch is based on Qt5.
The 1.5.3 release notes say it's now stable enough to be used for
actual workflows.

What about uploading it at least to Debian experimental? If it's not
too expensive maintenance-wise for your team, the benefits I would
expect are:

 - Ensure it works fine with Qt5 in the Debian context, sufficiently
   ahead of the Buster freeze.

 - Allow people/projects who want to build Qt4-free system images
   based on Debian testing/sid to do so. For example, we're trying to
   make the development branch of Tails based on Buster Qt4-free.

 - Gather feedback from Debian early testers to upstream.

Cheers,
