On a regular Debian system installation of my "scribus" package puts an entry into the "Applications/Office" menu in Gnome or the "Apps/Graphics" of the "Debian" menu just fine. I wouldn't have any idea what changes Ubuntu guys have made to the process. And by the way, that page (http://docs.scribus.net/index.php?lang=en&sm=install&page=install-dpkg) has been superseded by a new version currently in the scribus docs. I am not sure why Peter Linnell (mrdocs) hasn't put the new version up on the website, yet. We have a new official Debian repository now with a mirror in my webspace. So, the correct apt sources now are: # Main repository deb http://debian.tagancha.org/scribus unstable/ deb-src http://debian.tagancha.org/scribus unstable/ # Mirror repository deb http://debian.scribus.net/debian/ unstable/ deb-src http://debian.scribus.net/debian/ unstable/ Regards, Alex.
