[Scribus] Re: Picture and text frame problems

[Deb and Peter Zweck]

Thanks Louis and Craig, I'm up against deadline and haven't had time to 
research the bugtracker and list archives. Allow me to ask a couple more 
silly questions.....Is 1.2.2 backwardly compatible with the stuff  I've 
already done in 1.2.1?
And has anybody ever made RPMs of any 1.2.2 versions....I've never used 
CVS and don't know if I'll have the time to do a compile or if my 
current Mandrake has all the required libraries.
Thanks for the scrapbook hint...didn't quite know how to use it before :-)
