Thanks John. I use openSUSE 13.1 at this time. I have Scribus 1.4.3 
installed and use it. QT5 is also installed. Wanted to test 1.5 since I 
do Lions Club Bulletins and receive some publisher documents from others 
to insert in the Bulletin. 

I have used openSUSE since 1999. No MS software on my machine except a 
VM with XP to help my wife out occasionally. She has now move to Win 7, 
can't convince her to use Linux, etc. She is aself published author and 
I'd love to get her to use LibreOffice and Scribus. No luck so far.

I did find this rpm: scribus-1.5.0svn.18401-148.1.x86_64.rpm but I do 
not know if it will work. I think when I tried to install it, it had a 
dependency problem, but that was a while back. 

I'll try your script and see what happens.

Thanks for your response.
