[Scribus] TIFF is an unsupported file format?

[gewilit at gmx.de]

Hi John
just for you to know you are not alone: I have the same problem with Scribus 
1.3.2. This version on my Linux-PC shows no tif-files at all. I always have 
to change the files into a bmp-format ending with*.bmp. Then it works.
