Title:
  clicking a directory in file dialog causes Scribus to crash

Status in “scribus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  [Ubuntu version]: 12.04
  [scribus version]: 1.4.0.dfsg+r17300-1ubuntu1
  [lib1tgui4 version]:   Installed: 4:4.8.1-0ubuntu4.2;   Candidate: 4:4.8.1-0ubuntu4.3

  I'm pretty sure this bug is actually qt-related rather than Scribus,
  but I'm not sure which component of qt is involved.  I have have also
  had similar problems with QGIS.

  The bug is that when I try to save or open a file using the file
  dialog, clicking on a folder will often cause the application to
  crash. In Scribus, it first gives me a "Scribus crashes due to signal
  #6" error dialog before crashing. A crash seems to only happen when I
  click on certain directories; I haven't done enough investigation yet
  to see whether it's always the same directories that cause a crash. A
  single click on one of the bad directories is all it takes (double-
  click not necessary). A screenshot of the offending dialog is
  attached, or view it at http://tinypic.com/r/111jbwi/6

  After crashing I launched Scribus again, and this time it seemed to
  have lost some of its theming (I had to replace compiz and unity,
  though I don't know whether the two issues are related). The file
  dialog no longer caused a crash, but it looked terrible
  (http://tinypic.com/r/16lbpxz/6).

  For completeness, here is the dialog that caused a crash in QGIS:

  I have not been able to find a bug which sounds similar, but it seems to be the same as what was reported in this stackexchange issue:
  http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/35002/qgis-and-ubuntu-browse-dialogue-causing-crashing

  I am upgrading to the candidate qt4 package to see if that fixes
  anything.
