Thank you for all the help, let me explain what was happening It was indeed the file libqt-mt.so.3 which was missing, when a few friends here directed me to the Ubuntu forum I saw they were having problems with skype and I too tried to run skype it displayed the same error so it was NOT an error with scribus (Apologies) but more with a corrupt file. I was able to locate the file libqt3-mt which I reinstalled and once the process was complete it solved the issue.
I thank everyone here for responding so quickly to my query and hope this solution helps someone in the future Thanks yet again On 12/13/06, Branko Vukelic <bg.branko at gmail.com> wrote: > > On Tuesday 12.
