Eric, The latest gcc packages in sarge are at 3.4.3 version and the current unstable/testing have already diverged. Fortunately for you, sarge is not that far behind and you can get my package to work on your system by a simple package rebuild. Make sure that you have the deb-src lines for scribus repositories uncommented and run the following commands: The cool way (TM) - as root or set up sudo for yourself as a user: apt-get install apt-build (answer questions about your CPU and stuff - see an excellent document at http://julien.danjou.info/article-apt-build.html) apt-build update apt-build install scribus (or scribus-cvs) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- A bit slower way - as root: apt-get install devscripts build-essential fakeroot (minimal build environment) apt-get source scribus-cvs (or scribus) apt-get build-dep scribus-cvs (or scribus) cd scribus.... or scribus-cvs... (at this moment these are scribus-1.2.1+cvs20050620 and scribus-cvs-1.3+cvs20050629) debuild -us -uc cd .. dpkg -i scribus_.... or scribus-cvs_.... (at the moment these are scribus_1.2.1+cvs20050620-2_i386.deb and scribus-cvs_1.3+cvs20050629-1_i386.deb) Voila - you have a scribus (1.2) or scribus-cvs (1.3) package built and optimized for your system. If you have any other debian-related Scribus questions feel free to ask them at any time. Cheers, Alex
