SaneWidget 0.1.0

SaneWidget project is an image scanning application (frontend to sane), with hopefully a sane user interface. SaneWidget is also an example of how one can use libsanewidget.

libsanewidget is a Qt4-based library that provides a widget, containing sane options and a preview area. The application only needs to create a sanewidget-widget and connect some signals to get a notification of when an image is ready to be retrieved.

The source package contains both the library and the application.

To compile the library:

] cd /path/to/libsanewidget
] mkdir build
] cd build

] cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ../
] make
] sudo make install

To compile the application:

] cd /path/to/sanewidget
] qmake-qt4 INSTALLBASE=/usr
] make
] sudo make install

It is also possible to install Kubuntu Feisty packages with apt-get:

Download and add my authentication key to authenticate the packages:

] wget http://www.kolumbus.fi/kare.sars/kare_sars_pub.gpg
] sudo apt-key add kare_sars_pub.gpg

Add the following lines to /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://www.kolumbus.fi/kare.sars/ubuntu-debs ./
deb-src http://www.kolumbus.fi/kare.sars/ubuntu-debs ./

Update the packags list and install...:

] sudo apt-get update
] sudo apt-get install sanewidget
