[scribus] PDF text field not interactive

[John Gideon Howard]

Thanks a.l.e, but I'm still having the problem.
To clarify, the pdf looks fine, but in the lates Adobe Reader, I
cannot type inside form fields.

I didn't know my version of Scribus inunstable, but wouldn't this bug
be caught by now?

Thanks,
J
