I've been building Scribus from the high watermark of SVN (1.5) and
need to determine what version my currently running edition is from.<br>
Using Help-About does not provide me the Subversion version and
gives me a date of "1 August 2012" when my system notes I built it
18:33:17 09/10/12 PDT.<br>
<br>
Is the Subversion version which Scribus is built from ascertainable
from a running instance? If not, is there a file is the staged tree
that might reflect it? I built Scribus using Gentoo's portage
facility which basically pulls whatever is HEAD at the time I
update. In this case, I think I last successfully built on 18:33:17
09/10/12 PDT. I'm going to go look at the Subversion repository (I
hope there is a websvn (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://websvn.tigris.org/">http://websvn.tigris.org/</a>) interface) and
determine what version was HEAD around that time.<br>
<br>
It seems to me having a Subversion version and date included in the
About box might be helpful.<br>
