It seems the problem is related to GTK2 or the Perl bindings - the file browser should return 'ok' or 'cancel' on selecting the filename, but: DEBUG - PDF save filename dialog returned -5 I'll install the relevant packages from sid and see why... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#589796: [gscan2pdf-help] Can't save PDF with gscan2pdf
The logging system was previously just print and warn calls. I've now replaced all that using Log::Log4perl and added a couple of command line options to support it. I've uploaded a .deb to http://launchpadlibrarian.net/52500599/gscan2pdf_0.9.32~1_all.deb There are no other significant changes, apart from a couple of extra debugging messages. Please install. You might need a $ sudo apt-get install liblog-log4perl-perl first. If you start the program with $ gscan2pdf --log=log file It will default to 'debug' level messages, which will be printed to the terminal window and to log file. Please do so, reproduce the bug, quit, and post log file. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#589796: [gscan2pdf-help] Can't save PDF with gscan2pdf
Apologies for crossposting the gscan2pdf-help list, Debian, and Ubuntu
bugs, but it makes no sense to have the same conversation three times.
I've installed the main dependencies from sid and still can't reproduce this.
Does it make a difference if the image is imported or scanned?
Please apply the attached patch, which simply adds a couple of
debugging messages so that I can home in on where this coming from,
start gscan2pdf with the --debug option, try to save a PDF, quit, and
post the output from the command line.
Regards
Jeff
