I tried compiling the CVS code, here are some suggested corrections to the cvs instructions on the download page: http://web2.altmuehlnet.de/fschmid/download.html Where it says cd scribus/Scribus make -f Makefile.dist ./configure make make install The first S in each instance of the Scribus directory names are the opposite case of each other. RE: make -f Makefile.dist I've never seen this before, It didn't work for me in the Scribus/scribus directory of the untarred directory, but it was more responsive in the 1st level Scribus directory where it reported...
