I've been trying to get it to work, but perhaps with other ongoing 
problems with Scribus, right now it's not usable -- I get a Signal #11 
crash.

What you do is select a frame then press F7 or Item > Spell Checker, and 
some windows pop up. Could get that far only with an empty frame, then 
it crashed anyway.
