pdfedit is available via yum (just do "yum install pdfedit") but I'm not sure
that it's up to much.   I looked at it some time back and didn't find it
particularly useful, though that may have changed.

gimp can also open pdf files for editing.  You probably already have that
installed.

Note that what you'll end up with is a static graphic of some kind.  So if you
have a 20-page PDF file you'll get 20 images out of it that you can then place
on a Scribus page.  Depending on the nature of the material that you're moving
into Scribus, this may be satisfactory or it may not.

You will probably obtain the best results by taking the graphics and content
that you originally used to lay out the Pagemaker files and re-do it from
scratch in Scribus.  But of course that's the most labour-intensive method and
it may or may not be necessary, again depending on the nature of your material
and the result that you want to achieve.
