I read with great interest that thread and could not follow the uninterrupted steps to install it. I have been waiting in the wings hoping that there would be a follow-up comprehensive step-by-step "How to install", but have not seen one. I wonder if it is possible to post a "Cliff Notes" version for installing 1.3.9 in Ubuntu 10.10.<br>
<br>
I greatly appreciate any information,<br>

Just go to Applications-> Ubuntu Software Center and pull up the dialog. Put Scribus in the search box and you'll see four or more files. Highlight Scribus-NG and press the Install button. When it completes, you'll have 1.3.9 installed and working on your computer. Be advised that the stable version of Scribus is 1.3.3.14 while the Scribus-NG version is 1.3.9. This is a change within the last couple of weeks, so it you installed the NG version more that two weeks ago, you installed 1.3.8. <br>
