am I missing something here?
Nope. This appears to be a bug in the 64 bit builds. It affects ppc64 as well as x86_64. I reported it to bugzilla here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/312091
It seems like a simple fix, but I don't have an x86_64 boxes to test with. As linked in the bug, the fix is reported to be to add --with-extra-libs=%{_libdir} to the %configure call in the spec file. (I think that the --with-python-dir=... option can be removed then, but I haven't tested that.)
If you can build an test with the attached changes to the scribus spec file, add a comment to the bug report if it helps.
(Disclaimer: I know next to nothing about scribus, I was just curious about the build failure. :)
