John,

I've RC1 packages for amd64 and i386 for both intrepid and jaunty in our
archive. It looks like the archive generation software is having a fit
producing proper control files. I've just tried re-updating them, so please
reload your package database and see if the new package version
1.3.5.dfsg~svn20090518rc1-1 shows up.

Regards,

Alex


If it doesn't work you could manually install the deb from direct links:

http://debian.tagancha.org/debian/dists/jaunty/main/binary-amd64/scribus-ng_1.3.5.dfsg~svn20090518rc1-1_amd64.deb

or
http://debian.tagancha.org/debian/dists/intrepid/main/binary-amd64/scribus-ng_1.3.5.dfsg~svn20090518rc1-1_amd64.deb
