scarecrow Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Latest Scribus is 1.3.0 BTW, most bleeding edge distros have binaries for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photoworks Posted October 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idp...k.i586.rpm.html <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i try to install the rpms source from your but it tells me the following message in MCC : "Unable to add medium, error reported : impossible to retrieve the list of packages from the media "scribus". Either this update media is mis configureed, and in this case you should use the software media manager to remove it and re-add it in order to reconfigure it, either it is currently unreachable and you should retry later." I tried several link listed on the page but it is the same pb. i tried to donload the actual rpm on my desktop and install them from there but i still cannot do it. any idea what is wrong. any idea where to find a valid link for this application ?

scarecrow Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 @ photoworks: Go there, they have 1.3.0 for 10.1 There should be dependencies, so add the above site to your urpmi repositories, and get it via the usual "urpmi scribus". Once you setup your repos properly urpmi is a very powerful manager, no need to scramble around rpmfind and such odd places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinynorman Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 I managed to get as far as installing it, but aborted with invalid signatures as I don't need it installed anyway.... You can just ignore the invalid signatures. :) Did you set up an ftp source with url: "ftp://mirror.switch.ch/mirror/mandrake/devel/10.1/i586/media/main"? After that it was plain sailing using rpmdrake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
