well, afaict this gives you the latest revision on the scribus server... 
not the one you are compiling...

and what happens if you don't have internet access when compiling?

i think that as a first step you should really find another project 
already doing this and analyzing their way of doing...
i failed at it... but it does not mean that there is no way to do it!

ciao
