I can't reproduce it just like David. Scribus 1.4.2 will be coming out pretty soon, so there will be a package refresh. It's possible that your local issue will get resolved at that point. However, you could try purging and re-installing the scribus package right now and removing or renaming your '.scribus' folder in the process.
