That's strange. On my Debian etch, scribus-ng works and I get

Yes, exceeding strange! All of my output looks exactly like yours except
for the
floating point exception as a result of everything I do.
I tried reinstalling all the dependencies and it didn't make any difference.
I'll post some stuff at the bug site and see if I can wake them up.
Meantime, are there any alternatives to scribus or some other program
that might work?
Many thanks everyone!
Dennis
