The safe way to fix this is to remove /usr/local/bin/scribus or rename it. Depending on how your environment is setup, the search order for executable files could be /usr/local/bin/ before /usr/bin. For example, few rpm or debian packages are installed in /usr/local but in /usr Hope that helps, Peter
