Indeed Ctrl+Shift++ should be the default shortcut.
NumLock is on. I use the plus/minus keys on the numpad in Gimp and Inkscape. The numpad is close to the mouse, so zooming with those keys speeds work up.

Make sure Num Lock is on and try using the regular plus/minus keys. Check for conflicting shortcuts in Scribus settings. If the issue persists, updating Scribus or checking Mint's keyboard settings may help.

If you are just going to print it, most people find it easier to create it using a landscape A4 document.

If you design it doing four A5 pages you also need to imposition these before printing.

For the task in question I would probably try to use guides and just place image and text frames using the guides (using snap to guides).

Does it just stop abruptly on 10 pages, or do you notice an exponential slow-down the more pages you run the script on?  What happens on 3 pages?  Then 4?

In latest SVN this behavior is also exhibited; I never noticed that before. I also think it should gray-out (or do *something*) to show that you have multiple attributes selected.

If you want to make an A4 booklet wouldn't you want your pages to be A5 portrait, and arrange them next to each other?  Or just put some columns in an A4 landscape page?

Bug found and fixed, patch submitted.  See https://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=17290

Incidentally when I was testing I found Ctrl++ was a default keyboard shortcut to zoom in but was not working; initially I thought was related until I realized I had to press shift to access the + or I was effectively pressing Ctrl+=.  The default shortcut should probably be changed to Ctrl+Shift++ if most keyboards have = under the +  :-X

If you have Scribus 1.7.0.svn installed (latest code from right now), it can now Save As to 1.5.8 format, as well as 1.7.0.svn's format. Note if you save as a 1.5.8 document.. and then hit save.. it will be back to 1.7.0.

Most likely the importer library needs to be updated to handle the latest version of open document standard.
now if you open a  LO document in scribus 1.4 and save it, then open that 1.4 sla in a newer version of scribus are the styles are linked to the correct paragraph?
