==== To streamline this process and build scribus as a user: ====
'''Configure apt-src:'''
Add the following lines to /etc/apt/apt.conf or ~/.apt-src/config file:
<pre>APT::Src::RootCommand su -c;
APT::Src::BuildDeps</pre>
This is especially convenient if you set up the no-password su to root for yourself through pam. Otherwise you'll likely have to type a password.

Repository usage

To use our repositories add the appropriate source lines from the following list to your /etc/apt/sources.list file. Note that the lines starting with "deb" are used for installation of the pre-compiled binary packages and the line starting with "deb-src" are for the source package for building a binary package for your distribution (if it has a different set of libraries), hardware (if it's not x86) or compiler optimizations (if you really know you want them).

Source lines for /etc/apt/sources.list or for Synaptic et al

Ubuntu Breezy:

Note that Ubuntu breezy package can be also used for Ubuntu "Dapper" branch right now. When Dapper changes enough to require its own scribus or scribus-cvs package we will provide it. 

# debian.scribus.net - Primary repository
deb http://debian.scribus.net/debian breezy main restricted
deb-src http://debian.scribus.net/debian breezy main restricted
# debian.tagancha.org - Backup repository
deb http://debian.tagancha.org/debian breezy main restricted
deb-src http://debian.tagancha.org/debian breezy main restricted

Using cryptographic repository signatures:

Our repositories are cryptographically signed for added security. Add the gpg-keys for our repositories to avoid having to confirm your installation choice to the package manager each time you update a scribus or scribus-cvs package. 

root$ gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net --recv-keys DA286F326C5F196B
root$ gpg --armor --export DA286F326C5F196B | apt-key add -

or as a normal user (with an appropriate entry for apt-key in the sudoers file): 

user$ gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net --recv-keys DA286F326C5F196B
user$ gpg --armor --export DA286F326C5F196B | sudo apt-key add -

Final installation step

Once you added the relevant sources lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list you can run 

aptitude install scribus scribus-cvs

or 

apt-get install scribus scribus-cvs

in a root terminal or use your favorite graphical apt-get front-end such as synaptic or aptitude. Don't forget to "Reload Package List" in the synaptic. It's the equivalent of "apt-get (or aptitude) update" and has to be done to make new packages from our repositories available to your package management tools.
