I am fortunate enough to have adopted Slackware Linux over a decade ago for my main operating system. I keep both 1.4.0rc1 and 1.5.0 versions up to date on my system via svn.
When I discuss Scribus with MSWin users, for example in my e-book listed below, what do they need beyond the svn download to get Scribus svn versions up and running? I can guess PostScript and Cygwin, but what else? -- John Culleton Create Book Covers with Scribus: http://www.booklocker.com/p/books/4055.html Typesetting and indexing http://wexfordpress.com book sales http://wexfordpress.net Free barcode: http://www.tux.org/~milgram/bookland/
