*** Alex - excellent... thank you for answering.
*** I wonder... you may know... will there be
*** a newer release of Sarge, including any of
*** the newer Scribus releases on CD already ?
*** This is the always best for me, as I don't have
*** an internet connection for debian online upgrading.
*** I did try a binary 1.2.3... but this caused me
*** troubles with my computer... because, any
*** unpacking or access of that file seemed to
*** start some binary running... what would happen
*** is my zip just start clicking, and couldn't complete
*** the unpacking or moving, or whatever... no good :)
*** Also I did try the day before a tar.gz, which unpacked,
*** OK, but did not include a newer lib file... so I am trying
*** today again... hopefully, a file called "diff" actually
*** contains the new files needed ? I dont know yet.
*** Alex is a lucky fellow... debian and Scribus are tops !
