Dave I really appreciate that you took the time to see if 1.0.27 was in testing. I don't know where to look for that. Ok so that leaves learning how to build this myself. (I am not going back to Ubuntu) Just to let you know why..I have started a new YouTube channel and the video work I am doing

This sounds like a great way to go, except for being a newb and nothing ever seems to work right for me when trying to build it myself, then I'm stuck with half a build sitting on my PC and no idea how to remove it...case in point one such program sits on my PC right now, the build instructions I

I do agree that only installing the one file libjpeg8 would make more sense, but then again I don't know what problems that may cause and I would be the only one trying to figure it out. At least the other way, there are many people smarter than me working on "testing" and I would have more of a

Joel, I'm trying really hard not to destroy Debian Stable. I am a Linux newb and it is really easy to get carried away with reading websites and trying different things and messing up things I know nothing about. Package Manager said "uninstallable" so I'm guessing libjpeg8 doesn't play nice.

Thanks Olaf, So how do I install 1.0.27. I'm back to the problem that libsane won't install because of the "dependency libjpeg8 is uninstallable" because Debian 9 KDE is using libjpeg62-turbo. Can I change what dependency libsane needs? Or instead of using Rolf's repo, maybe there is a more
