I know people is now busy with bringing KDE 4.6.90 to Cauldron, and mentors are a scarce resource, yet I'd like to say that I added a few more packages in my unofficial repo (y compris calibre updated to 0.8.7): OCR-related new packages: * cuneiform-linux, at 1.1.0, a rather good multilanguage OCR (the officially-available tesseract is also a good one, but it lacks a GUI) * cuneiform-qt, a simple yet very practical GUI for the previous package * yagf, another GUI for the same OCR * kbookocr 2.0, a hard-to-find (on distros other than ALT Linux) GUI for the same OCR, able to also use PDF and DJVU for input files, offering an interface with the scanner, and an integration with the default word processor (LibreOffice Writer) All these OCR GUIs are showing up in the Office KDE menu, not in Graphics, like XSane.
