No

apparently the term/word "stable" is no more related to even numbers in
Scribus version 1.3.

Version 1.2.5 is very old and won't offer proper functionalities/stability.

We should check if version 1.3.3.2 is "stable" enough by gathering
sufficient reports about it and keep with that version until an 1.4
ships out.

To quote them :
_
This release is purely a bug fix release to the recently released 1.3.3.
The rationale is that there will be substantial core code changes in the
next 1.3.4 and 1.3.5 releases, so the team has branched 1.3.3 to provide
a stable usable development version.

Any objection ?
