Now that it's up and running - I just thought I was right in a way 
anyhow: The string in the instructions should read

/usr/bin/cmake ../scribussource 
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/home/username/scribusinstall/


to avoid confusion, shouldn't it? For on top of the page, they used 
"scribussource" for indicating the Scribus Source directory.
