I have just last week sucessfully built 1.5 on OpenSuse 13.1. In addition to John's instructions you can also look at
http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Building_SVN_versions_with_CMake which contains some OpenSuse 13.1 specific remarks, and also at http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Official:Compile_with_CMake You will have to install the development tools (gcc, cmake, etc) and various libraries (with associated "devel" rpm's), which can be a bit tedious the first time, but the above wiki articles are very helpful.
