I will try not to dwell much on issues building issues and dependency hell because it is a somewhat different problem than the point of this exercise, but I think this needs to be mentioned.
I missed this little nugget when it came around the first time and I’m betting others did too. The scribus SVN servers moved earlier this year ( perhaps the end of last year? ) breaking my old build script.
Incidentally, I’ll post that for anyone choosing to play the home game.
cd ~/Scribus
svn co svn://scribus.net/trunk/Scribus scribus150svn
cd scribus150svn
rm CMakeCache.txt
/usr/bin/cmake ../scribus150svn \
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=~/scribusinstall/ -DWANT_DEBUG=1 \
-DWANT_VERSIONING=1
make clean
make
make install
