you can install scribus 1.3.9 by using fink.

www.finkproject.org/

it's not really difficult, but it takes time to compile.

well, you may even be able to find binaries for ppc and 1.3.8 on fink...


if you prefer a gui to the command line you may try

http://finkcommander.sourceforge.net/


good luck and don't hesitate to ask further questions!
