Summary0017228: Typo in insertHtmlText() Scripter Doc
DescriptionThe first argument to the insertHtmlText() scripter function is the name of a file containing the text to insert, but it's called "text" in the arg list in the doc. It should be called "file" as it is in the description on the doc.

Hey, this is something unrelated but since I know no other way to reach the Scribus people, I will request here:
Why the svn versions (1.6.2 and 1.7.0) are not available for Linux (directly)? Those folders do not have a single AppImage or .deb or flatpak.
Man, is heartbreaking to see that there are even .exe files but no Linux formats. (There may be something in missing kindly let me know)

The even bigger problem is that the AppImages already available for 1.5.8 and 1.6.1 do not work. I tried on LMDE and Fedora 40. They just don't do anything when press enter. (Selected to open with Run Software on Fedora still nothing).

But anyway at least provide a .deb file for the SVN versions of not an .rpm, so more people could help test the software.
Big thanks to the developers for a gem like Scribus.

[new version with more clarity]
Hey, this is something unrelated but since I know no other way to reach the Scribus people, I will request here:

Man, it is heartbreaking to see that there are even .exe files but no Linux formats. It's FOSS. Shouldn't Linux comes as equal to Windows if not before? (There may be something I'm missing kindly let me know)

The even bigger problem is that the AppImages already available for 1.5.8 and 1.6.1 do not work. I tried on LMDE and Fedora 40. They just don't do anything when press enter. There is a message sometimes about it not being a valid file. (I can provide the exact one if you ask). I Selected to open with Run Software on Fedora still nothing.

But anyway at least provide a .deb file for the SVN versions if not an .rpm, so more people could help test the software.
