Summary | 0012520: Ubuntu-repositories | ||||
Description | Hello! Can you tell me why the repositories for Ubuntu are not maintained any more? Since some libraries have changed in the meantime, it's getting more and more difficult to install a previous version. The supported Ubuntu-Version in the repositories is two versions behind (13.04, Raring); current is 14.04 (Trusty). Greetings, Andreas | ||||

Hi Andreas, the package builder for Ubuntu has been busy. We are all volunteers. In the mean time, if you are interested, Jluc has created a script for Ubuntu to compile bleeding edge builds. There is nothing scary about them. You most likely will need to backup any SLA files before you use it. https://github.com/JLuc/makscribus Feel free to come to Freenode #scribus to troubleshoot Reminder: this is an experiemental build. and may not work with most commercial printers. nevertheless many scribus power-users use it. If you have issues you can always file bugs at bugs.scribus.net |

Hi! Thanks for your quick answer. I understand about being all volunteers - I live that kind of madness myself. :-) Still, bleeding edge builds are no option for me since we use Scribus (voluntarily, for our church paper) on a distributed teamwork basis where I'm working with Linux and the others use Windows. Which is basically, I think, an ideal scenario for using Scribus. So it would really be nice if there was an Ubuntu version to match the current stable Windows build - I'd hate to switch to Windows just to be able to use a fresh, stable Scribus. |

15.04 has at least 1.4.4, and the PPA works again now. Closing |
