That's because RC means release candidate. This usually involves (I'm not sure how scribus handles this) a feature freeze, meaning that no new features are incorporated into the code base and a focus to search for bugs. RC-versions are usually not intended to be used in production. They are released however so that people can take a look and hopefully find bugs. You seem to have found one. Congratulations ;-). Oh, BTW: signal #6 is SIGABRT (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIGABRT). It tells you that the program has aborted. If there is no other message, that's rather not helpfull.
