Hi SuSE people,
Recently did an upgrade with apt-get. I foolishly allowed Sane & ImageMagick to be uninstalled, thinking I would just reinstall them later. One of the upgrades was gimp--1.3.19-SuSE.ulb.1
When I try to reinstall Sane it fails because it is looking for libgimp-1.2.so.0 & libgimpui-1.2.so.0. Well, now I have libgimp-1.3.so.19 & .19.0.0 (same for libgimpui ) Sane is looking for older packages than I have installed.
What to do? Need to get that scanner working again. Would like to get ImageMagick going again also. Haven't investigated thoroughly but is probably the same problem.

I talked to james about this a few months ago. The version of sane and imagemagick are built upon(or against) the older version of gimp. James said it wasn't a priority, so I just left it alone. Try with yast2 to drop back to the old gimp, then reinstall sane and some of the other scanner packages that may have also been uninstalled. I guess you could try to build a new sane, but i wasn't that ambitous. I don't even know if it would work. HTH -- Franklin Maurer Using SuSE 8.2 Pro
