Updated Debian but only in Buster: ScanTailor

#1 Post by reinhart »

Can't install my sometimes used ScanTailor get: libqt5core5a : Beschädigt: libqtcore4
on libqt5core5a over 200 apps xD
Best would be that ScanTailor get an update but I think no one would do. (Or I go back to buster :mrgreen: )

Looks like it has had no development for 6 years so could be considered abandoned. Bullseye likely no longer has the old dependencies required.
There is a newer Github for a version called ScanTailor Advanced, which appears to be more up-to-date although it has not had development for 2 years. The build instructions are quite long but also appear fairly detailed - https://github.com/4lex4/scantailor-libs-build

I missed good apps lost in every release. It's a real shame. Thanks for posting about ScanTailor app. Maybe someone will notice and try and salvage it. It's tricky to manage scanned documents because pdf is pretty much standard for emailing in documents to the office and they always need help.

Have you tried to find a replacement app that can do what scantailor does?

I don't have to manage pdf pages that often, and I'm not sure what your specific workflow is, but have you taken a look at pdfchain? https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/pdfchain

The package version is nearly identical from buster to bullseye, so maybe you can take a look at it in buster and see if it fills your needs.
