this is the ticket i was referring to:

http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=12774

it has been applied to 1.5 at the beginning of this year.

i could not check the issue you are referring to, but it might or not 
solve your issue.
if it does not, further work must be done to avoid that such a dialog is 
shown.

once it's clear if the issue is still there in the current trunk you:
- can fill a ticket and hope that somebody fixes the issue or
- have a look at the patch attached to the ticket and try to solve 
yourself the issue

as far as i can tell, currently the warnings are converted into text 
displayed in the terminal, which is practically the same as ignoring them.
this is probably the simplest solution.

you can have a look at the patch linked above: it can give you an idea, 
how this is done :-)

... i cannot dig into that myself right now, sorry...

have a nice afternoon
