  Description     : Gnome Scan Infrastructure

GnomeScan is the Gnome project that provides libraries for developers to
integrate scan features in their app and provide applications and
plugins for the user to use such features.

GnomeScan provides libgnomescan to access scanner and libgnomescanui to
build scan dialogs. It also provides flegita (scan application) and
flegita-gimp, a gimp plugin that uses the GnomeScan libraries. Flegita
allows to simply scan an area from a device and saving to a file in
various formats (currently, PNG, JPEG, TIFF and PDF are supported).
Flegita-Gimp allows to create a new image or import as new layer. Image
rotation is supported.

In the future GnomeScan and flegita will split. GnomeScan will only
provide libgnomescan, libgnomescanui, a dbus service and a capplet.
Flegita will provide tiny apps and various plugins for Gimp, gthumb,
Abiword, Evolution, etc.

There are packages available in Ubuntu [1] and packages rebuild and
updated for use within Debian [2].

Best regards,
