[Scribus] Font trouble on MDK10 official

[Vladimir Zborowski]

Hello,
There is at least two rpms available for scribus 1.1.6, one on the 
edulinux website http://edulinux.org/scribus/RPMS/
and one in the club contribs of mandrake. They work fine for me (but I'm 
using Mdrk 10 community).
Did you already try them ?
