Thanks for all your help. I also had to install the qt3.3 development 
libaries. I am now past the ./configure process and moving on. 

I am real impressed with Scribus, since moving to Linux i now have aways to 
finally get rid of MS especially publisher. I now do my Lions Club Bulletin 
in Scribus and then convert it to PDF for the copy center. All worked great. 
I am having a problem importing a .sxd file but have not tryed it yet with 
the new updates.
