I don’t know if this is a bug or a “feature.”
I needed to scan in a few medical bills for tax purposes with my Canon scanner. With Skanlite, everything works fine, one page, one .pdf file. But time-consuming as I will need to merge those files together.
I thought I would give Skanpage a try, as this is my go-to for multiple page scanning into a single .pdf file. I installed it with dnfdragora, selecting plasma6-skanpage, version 25.04.0.
Problem: The “Show Scanner Options” button (top right) in Skanpage was not working.
Failed solution: Back to dnfdragora. Uninstall plasma6-skanpage, version 25.04.0. Install skanpage, version 23.08.3. This version doesn’t work with Plasma 6.
Next step, it solved the problem (I think): Back to dnfdragora. Uninstall skanpage, version 23.08.3. Install plasma6-skanpage, version 25.04.0. Now Skanpage works, including the “Show Scanner Options” button.
Question: Why does doing this song and dance routine of uninstalling and installing with dnfdragora get the options button inside Skanpage to work?
I noticed that version 25.04.0 is significantly smaller than 23.08.3, based on what dnfdragora is showing me. When I attempted to install 23.08.3, did some missing files get installed from 23.08.3?
