It was around for at least a couple of year, but the Gimp plugin is a
PITA to use, and not ported to Gimp1.2 (unless you use the patch I
recently sent to the maitainer).

But the program is also unmaintained for at least a couple of years :-(

Will try it. Sure.
The old dust remove plugin did save a couple of scratched slides.
BTW, this won't work with B&W negatives and Kodachrome slides dut to the
nature of the film dye that contains to much silver oxids particle
unlike C41 or E6 process films. This is not a problem with the software,
but with the hardware (look at the IR scan).
