I've not gotten around to installing Kubuntu yet, Ian, but when I upgraded
my laptop to Ubuntu 10.10 last night I this was the change I made in
Synaptic to the repository list:

deb http://debian.scribus.net/debian/ lucid main

Now, I know Ubuntu 10.10 is "meerkat" and not "lucid", but it worked.  Prior
to making that change I was getting 1.3.8 when downloading Scribus-ng.
After that change, I got 1.3.9 and it works fine.  I'm not totally familiar
with how the repositories are organized, but this worked for me and maybe
will for you.  Now, if you are getting a good download of 1.3.9 and there is
some problem with it and Kubuntu, I can't help much there, but that would
surprise me.
