I tried compiling with zig 0.15.2-2 instead if libstdc++5 and that worked. Zig is in the repos and does not need to be compiled.

Also tried using gtk2-compat instead of compiling gtk2 and that did not work. I just installed gtk2 from the archives.

Working fine.

@Maxb0tbeep who flagged with 2.30.6 is out as of 2025-08-01, 2.30.6 is a fake version for only the builded 64 bit .deb package, the sources are still the same, likely they have made a rebuild

@Vain Thanks for the hint! I thought it was possible but I used a wrong flag when testing

@S2e2 gcc14 is no longer required yet just so you know

And my version is: Name : gcc Version : 14.2.1+r753+g1cd744a6828f-1

gccand gcc14 are 2 different packages, with gcc being at v15.1 now

So I guess you have either an outdated system or are on something like Manjaro stable branch which still have gcc at v14.2.1 now https://manjaristas.org/branch_compare?q=gcc

Hello,

Unable to install iscan. I get: "unable to satisfy dependency 'gcc14' required by iscan"

And my version is: Name : gcc Version : 14.2.1+r753+g1cd744a6828f-1

Hi, looks like something along the lines of export CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -std=gnu89" is enough to make iscan compile with GCC 15. That way we don't need to depend on GCC 14. :-)

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.
