Is scribus-ng what I should now be using, i.e. is it the stable version, or is it really for developers and risk-takers? Thanks for the help.

There had some messages about that.
The 1.3.3.1 (the -1 at the end is not the number of a version) is the 
1.3.3 (the one that you call 1.3.3-1) with some corrections.
So you should do:

- apt-get update
- apt-get install scribus-ng

and then you have to type scribus-ng to run the 1.3.3.1
