[SOLVED] Scribus 1.6.1 high CPU and freeze after right click

[Lemuria]

As it says in the title. When I right click in Scribus, it freezes and becomes unresponsive, and when I open `btop` (or htop) I see it use up 100% of the CPU.

I'm using the Scribus AppImage, and attempts to reproduce this on the Flatpak do not cause this freezing. Of note is that at this point Scribus has been running for around three-ish hours.

Update: A few days ago I got an SSD and the problem dissipated entirely. I guess it fixed itself right there and then.
