Install Scribus 1.4.8

Hi,
how do i install an older Version, like 1.4.8 of Scribus?

I used the newest, installed by Software manager or pacman,
but it had a bug. I didn’t show the “Text” tab in the properties pallette…

Thanks
Hannes

You could do this for example with downgrade

sudo downgrade --ala-only scribus

If that version is not there, then there is no precompiled one. You will have to compile it yourself:

Here is an example for trunk: PKGBUILD - aur.git - AUR Package Repositories (sure, you have adjust the source and paths)

Official:Compile with CMake - Scribus Wiki

Path to the svn repo would look like this:

svn://scribus.net/tags/Release_1.4.8/Scribus
svn checkout svn://scribus.net/tags/Release_1.4.8/Scribus scribus-1.4.8
