there seams to be an easy fix for it: just run scribus in its default language (which -- at the end -- is english). iirc -- and if the situation hasn't changed in the last few years -- this will solve your problem. afaik, it's a problem related to way ubuntu patches qt, so scribus has really no control over it! on the sunny side, i guess that the issue should be solved with qt 4, so future releases of scribus should automatically work correctly! have fun a.l.e
