Hey there...just looking for scribus 1.3.0. 1.2.1 is the latest in the repo. My reason: UNDO! There's no friggin UNDO in 1.2.1! I'm surprised to find a DTP app w/o undo...you know, for screw-ups like me. ;-)

I'm also looking for this. It's a great application which has evolved quite a bit since 1.2.1

Same here, I've seen 1.3.x on another distro and there are quite a few changes including tabs with fill characters. Scribus is really growing fast.

yes please, i'm desperate for this. not only undo but the fact i can't open any work i did on my old dapper 32 system as it was done in 1.3.3.2

i'm stuck in 1.2 not being able to access or alter stuff done in 1.3

please can someone advise,

thanks.

Visit the Scribus.net Debian repository (http://www.scribus.net/index.php?name=Sections&req=viewarticle&artid=4&page=1)

Follow the instructions here to compile the source packages for your arch. Note that the breezy repo should be used for dapper.

I got scribus from synaptic but it shows it's version 1.2.4.1. I also can't type anything into a text box with it. Windows version work great. Any ideas why what I type isn't showing up? Right mouse click in text box and choose edit text. New box opens, type ... nothing appears... nothing. I tried changing my keyboard layout but that didn't seem to do anything. I'm running Dapper 6.06lts

Edit: Looks like the default font is Lohit Bengali Regular. After changing it to bitstreem it worked fine.. Go figure.
