Yesterday, when I saw the last comments, I recompiled the package excluding the gimp plugin, and tested iscan: it works as usual. At the moment the only problems I have encountered are: 1) the png saving format is no longer available; 2) iscan crashes when you want to use the button to scan multiple pages in a row.

Made a test with disabile gimp the other but don't remember of I tried the package, anyway I've set a reminder

If you don't need the plugin for GIMP, you can simply edit the PKGBUILD:

--enable-png
# --enable-gimp
make

The problem with iscan is that it crashes when you want to use the button to scan multiple pages in a row.

I confirm. Unable to install iscan.

Got this when running makepkg:

checking for GIMP... no
checking for GIMP - version >= 1.0.0... checking for gimp-config... no
configure: error: required module not found

The iscan 2.30.4.2-3 package is not compatible with version 3.0.0-1 of Gimp. When I reverted Gimp to 2.10.38-5 the makepkg ran fine. The module in question lives somewhere in the /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/ directory tree. I tried linking /usr/lib/gimp/3.0/ to /usr/lib/gimp/2.0 but that did not work.

...and the 1.39.2-1 version of the iscan-data package source archive:

I have archived a copy of the GPL portion of the Image Scan! for Linux 2.30.4 source archive just in case it will no longer be accessible in the future:

https://archive.org/details/iscan-2.30.4-gpl

This copy does not include the non-free esmod library to comply with EPSON's licensing requirements.

It seems this software is discontinued

Yes, this (also know as epkowa) have been discontinued in favour of imagescan (utsushi, not retrocompatible/replacement), I only have an old epkowa scanner about other Epson stuff I know nothing

It seems this software is discontinued. I cannot find it anywhere on any Epson site anymore, but on the other hand Epson Scan2 suddenly supports my printer (DS-310). Before it didn't. Is that possible, that Epson dropped iscan in favor Scan2?
