Again why? The latest Scribus 1.4.x will export
all useful forms of pdf except PDF X/1-a:2001. If
that is what you need send me the pdf file and I
will convert it using Scribus 1.5.0. Or "collect
for output" the sla file and fonts etc., zip that
directory, send it and I will run that through
1.5.0.

When either 1.5.0 or 1.6.0 is available it/they
will have PDF X/1-a:2001 as an option. I use
1.5.0 svn now. 

If you still want to play with sla2pdf then find
a way to download Scribus 1.3.6. Or modify the
python code yourself.
