The safe way to fix this is to remove /usr/local/bin/scribus or rename 
it.

Depending on how your environment is setup, the search order for 
executable files could be /usr/local/bin/ before /usr/bin.

For example, few rpm or debian packages are installed in /usr/local 
but in /usr

Hope that helps,
