I'm getting same error with Ubuntu 12.04 .

Versions of Scribus:
scribus 1.4.0.dfsg+r17300-1ubuntu1 Open Source Desktop Page Layout - stable branch

Happens EVERY time. I start Scribus. I go to open a file(either through the open dialog on startup, or through "Open File" under file). It gives me a file manager window. Whatever I click on, gives me the crash.

When I try to start from command line, same crash, but I get this:
$ scribus

Scribus Crash
-------------
Scribus crashes due to Signal #6
Calling Emergency Save
$

Using a hint from s-krasin, and running:
$ sudo scribus

Everything runs fine. Instead of the gnome file mamanger, it opens up the kde file manager.

Running this as a super user is NOT a valid workaround. Please fix.
