To install this package, run::
python setup.py build
and (with root privileges)::
python setup.py install
Before you do this, make sure that the following programs / libraries
are installed on your system:
- `Python <http://www.python.org>`_
- Python's distutils and the Python development package
- a C compiler (gcc most probably)
- `SANE <http://sane-project.org/>`_
- `PyGTK <http://www.pygtk.org>`_ (in some Linux distributions called python-gtk)
- `Python Imaging Library <http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/index.htm>`_ (PIL)
Version 1.1.6 of PIL is _strongly_ recommended, because
- older versions lock other Python threads while scan data is acquired,
making the GUI "unresponsive" during data acquisition.
- older version have a bug that makes it impossible to read the
backside image from duplex scanners.
In some Linux distributions, PIL's Sane libraries are not
part of the default PIL package.
In this case you must install PIL's Sane module manually from
the source files. Either download the sources from the
pythonware website, or install the sources that hopefully came
with your operating system.
- To try the SQLSample output plugin, you must install or have access to
a MySQL or PostgreSQL database; and a Python database adapter must
be installed. At present, these adapters are supprted:
- `MySQLdb <http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python>`_ by Andy
Dustman,
- `PyGreSQL <http://pygresql.org/>`_ by Pascal Andre and D'Arcy J.M.
Cain
- `Psycopg <http://www.initd.org/>`_ by Michele Comitini and Federico
Di Gregorio
