Good news.
Is there a PPA yet?

[a.l.e]

probably not a PPA (ubuntu seems to have slipped a bit behind. and it is somehow understandable that the maintainer might not be in a hurry after all the struggles of the past years).

but there is an appimage:

[bubu]

There is an unofficial Scribus 1.6 PPA. See there:

- https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/+archive/ubuntu/scribus

qt5-image-formats-plugins is also required. Not sure if you are the owner of any of those pages, @bubu?

btw, today i've reactivated the creation of "nightly" appimages for the 1.6 branch.
(i had to switch from 1.5.x to 1.6.x ...)

1.7 will probably follow soon.

Sorry, I just found these pages.
