There are problems with Ghostscript now. See my bugreport on Haikuports.

there is not ghostscript_gpl for Haiku 32bit

I’d be surprised if Scribus ran on 32-bit also! That’s a huge program!

On Haiku x86:

  1. pkgman install ghostscript_gpl_x86

Scribus 1.5.7 x86 works on Haiku x86. Recently it broke during python updates, so reviewing it again
once I re-update my systems.

Nice but Ghostscript does not work well on my Haiku 64bit and 32bit nightly…
