personally, i never install software in /usr/local but i let the "make 
install" create a directory for each program in /usr/local

for scribus, you will pass

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr/local/scribus_135

when you install 135 and

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr/local/scribus_133x

when you compile the stable version.

if you want to be able to run scribus from the command line, you can set 
up two symbolic links in /usr/local/bin:

$ cd /usr/local/bin
$ ln -s /usr/local/scribus_135/bin/scribus scribus_135
$ ln -s /usr/local/scribus_133x/bin/scribus scribus_133x


have fun
