With all the help from the list, I finally have Scribus 1.5.5_svn up and running.
* I had an ancient version of podofo which I had compiled at some time in the past. Removing that started to make a difference; * Greg gave me a dnf command he uses to ensure he hs everything neccessary installed, so I ran that and it found a few I had missed; * I had an elderly, compiled version of 1.4.6 sitting in /usr/local, so I deleted that; * I found the commands on this page lacked a tiny bit of vital information. The line: svn co svn://scribus.net/trunk/Scribus should read: svn co svn://scribus.net/trunk/Scribus scribus155 * And, to cap it all off, I had and old and a new version of GLIBC, which was confusing things. With all these matters corrected, the cmake, make and make install went without a hitch. All I had to do was create a menu entry and assign the correct Scribus logo to it and now I can run Scribus the way I expect to run it. Many thanks everyone for all your help. I love the Internet. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.scribus.net/pipermail/scribus/attachments/20181207/c5ab6002/attachment.html>
