Hyperlinks

I would like to add, to the PDF that I generate with Scribus, hyperlinks both to external URLs and to pages within the document.

It explains how to create links to external URLs.

It mentions using buttons to create internal links.

I have attempted both of these approaches and I cannot get either to work.  When I click on the relevant text in the generated PDF, nothing happens.  Is this functionality still supported?  I am using Scribus version 1.5.8 on Ubuntu.

Regarding the PDF button, every time I edit its properties, or in any way interact with the UI for the PDF button, Scribus hangs.  On the lower left on the status bar I see "Adjusting colors...".  On the lower right I see a status bar which advances very slowly from 0% to 100%.  It repeats this several times, every time I click on the dialog for the PDF button.  I am using Scribus version 1.5.8 on ubuntu.
