Thanks, but it seems uninstallable. (below) I used the Ubuntu deb line in my sources.list and tried every release back to Karmic, and same error.
I've fussed with this kind of problem before using Aptitude, and broke my package managment system.
gscan2pdf is available in Debian Sid, but when I turn off testing and on unstable in sources.list, it wants to upgrade a number of other libraries to support gscan2pdf, which I'm afraid will break my system when I set it back to testing.
Don't know what to do.
