Hi John,

It is possible that something has got out of kilter.  Can you start your  
version of Scribus from the command line, invoke an error and then look at your 
console and advise the output from the failure. 

Also, I have never understood why you go and download the whole repository for 
each build. Why don't you do what everyone else does, 

 1. Get the base repository ( See 
https://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Building_SVN_versions_with_CMake )

 2. Build it

 3. And then on after, do a # svn up followed by a # make install   (The link 
above is *really* worth following )
