Package: scribus
Version: 1.3.3.13.dfsg~svn20081228-2
Severity: normal

It is impossible to move frames around on a page and get them aligned
and sized, using the page grid.

When trying to resize a frame, by chance it's either moved or resized,
though the mouse pointer changes to the move icon. Then the frame
snaps to something, but not in any reasonable way to a grid which
would allow you to align the frames evenly buy just moving them around
and sizing them with the mouse.

Fumbling around with the "Align and Distribute" window is no
alternative. Using a grid of guides doesn't work, either: I ended up
not being able to move the frames to where I wanted them at all.

The inablilty to move and align and size frames equally makes Scribus
pretty much unusable.
