Symbol is a new feature (similar to the same in Adobe Illustrator) which is a form of clone feature, but once the original object edited all the clones (copy object) will be edited too following the original. The biggest failure in Scribus for me is a lack of a mail merge feature.

Weld is a new group feature while the group itself still exist.

Weld is a new feature to combine two objects (like group) but every object still can be edited separately.

Scribus can now include bitmap images inside its document file.

Scribus offers its software in two versions: stable and development. So any SLA document edited with 1.5, can not be edited with 1.4 for example. Here are tutorials and Scribus documentation that will get you up and running quickly.

Scribus 1.5 will not backward-compatible in SLA document editing with previous release.

It has proved to be a good alternative to the expensive and elaborate desktop publishing programs. One of the most noticeable change in Scribus 1.5 is its addition of calligraphy tool, pen tool, spiral shape, and arc shape. Scribus can stand as an excellent DTP professional package for several kinds of platforms, and also a good open source DTP app around which you get free of cost.
