Hi all, I started working with Scribus yesterday and I faced that nasty bug that prevents from setting sizes and positions of objects (I'm using Kubuntu and my system is in french). I searched over the net, and it seems to be a problem present in all *ubuntu.
One workaround is to start scribus using "LC_ALL=C scribus". The downside is that accents don't work anymore. I eventually found another (better?) workaround: just remove the package "scim-qtimm". That way I can start scribus normally, I can enter values for sizes (manually or with the spinbox) and accented characters are working. Daniel
