<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">Awhile back I wrote a <a href="http://forums.pcbsd.org/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=12588">Tips & Tricks article</a> on installing an image scanner with Xsane and as a plug-in to Gimp. This would make a good PBI. Xsane is the better of all the scanner programs I found for KDE.<br><br>I recently added Gimp via PBI and tried to install Xsane as a Gimp plugin - modified the symlink to:<br><br>ln -s /usr/local/bin/xsane <style type="text/css">i { white-space: pre-wrap; }
</style>

Xsane works ok by itself, but Gimp can't see it as a plugin. I tried to flush the Gimp plugin cache by: touch /usr/local/bin/xsane but not sure if it worked. There is supposed to be a plugin cache file named pluginrc, but I couldn't find it.</p><p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;"><br></p><p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">Maybe you can see my mistake and make a PBI too.</p><p style="margin: 0px;
