[Scribus] Please have version number as part of documentation filename

I am building a pkgsrc entry for scribus documentation.
It will use the English.
I will probably call the package "scribus-doc" or "scribus-docs".
The filename is scribus-i18n-en. The name doesn't include any version
information.
This causes two problems:
1) users don't know if documentation is same as version of scribus they
are running.
2) file checksums change if file is updated. (Automated build systems use
pre-recorded checksums to make sure that the download has not been
compromised.)
Please consider adding a version identifier to the actual documentation
file names.
As far as I can tell, the version from the mirrors is 1.0 (according to
docs/en/index.html and 14-Jul-2003 date of file).
Maybe name it as scribus-i18n-en-1.0.tar.gz and have a symlink of
scribus-i18n-en.tar.gz to the real version.

p.s. For those who use pkgsrc to install software, it now contains
scribus-1.1.1.
