Instructions for CMake are ambiguous -- Jbennett 21:00, 17 August 2011 (CEST)

The instructions for running CMake have added an extra level of hierarchy, at least if building from the tar.bz2 distribution. Since this is packed from inside the Scribus directory, there is no Scribus directory when unpacked.

So the instructions to run CMake in this case should be:

/usr/bin/cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/home/username/scribusinstall/

For now this should be noted here in the documentation, but the solution is to create the tar.bz2 versions of the distribution from one level higher up in the directory hierarchy. Jbennett 21:00, 17 August 2011 (CEST)
