Hi,

This seems specific to Mandriva.

I've built a snapshot of  
http://www.scribus.net/temp/scribus-1.3.3.10svn-16.1.i586.rpm and 
testing with this does not show the issue on Mdk 2007.1

I had filed a bug on Mandrake's packaging of Scribus which has for a 
long time had some missing compile dependencies. I would recommend 
any Mandrake 2007.0 user to try the scribus rpms from here:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/mrdocs/Mandriva_2007/repodata/

Please report any issues with these rpms to http://bugs.scribus.net

Peter
