I currently have testing and unstable in my package source lists, and I'm fairly sure that most of my packages are updated to those releases. But as a relative Linux (and Debian) newbie, I can't guarantee that all of the packages that a regular user would expect to see in a standard system are installed. (For instance I didn't have the libstdc++ installed when I first attempted to run the epkowa backend.) But the libesint23.so doesn't even mention libstdc++ in its dependencies, so installing the latter library wouldn't (and didn't) help. > Sure looks like a C++ issue.

I guess I can't do that with this backend. > # Development is done on Debian GNU/Linux testing (despite the fact > # that EPSON KOWA does not support Debian :-(). That shouldn't matter too much as far as library dependencies go, I wouldn't have thought... > Steve, please send a bug report to pipsn...@epkowa.co.jp. > # And a request for debian packages ... Okay, bug report sent. I haven't specifically asked for Debian support yet. Thanks, Steve
