Hi,

unfortunately GS is the only external dependency which is  not included 
in the snapshot. Scribus uses GS for print preview, ps import and maybe 
other functions.
It is not needed for normal editing, ps export or PDF export.

You will need the GS executable, not the shlibs. If you have Fink 
(http://fink.sourceforge.net/) or i-Installer 
(http://www.rna.nl/ii.html) installed, that is the easiest way to go. 
Otherwise you'll have to build it from source. It's important that you 
install libpng and the other libs first and make sure GS finds those 
libraries.

/Andreas
