3 years ago fakeroot is one of debtap’s dependencies and it should be installed before running the program...
There is no way to run debtap for multiple packages at the moment, but you can try running it in a loop like this:
ls -1 *.deb | while read line; do debtap ”$line"; done

3 years ago Hello,
partial "success" after installing fakeroot...
I think, that not much people know that fakeroot is a necessary program which has to be installed. Please insert an message into the script if fakeroot has to be installed. ... AND/OR start installation of fakeroot and give a hint to save all open files and prevent the restart of the system.
Then I tried to convert the single .deb-files. I get these messages of dependencies. All files are stored in different folders. I can try to move them into a single folder. I dont't know if I have to start the initial epson install.sh. Therefore the files should be in the original folder, but I guess this will turn out to be nonsense.

This seems to be an partial success.

Additional: = = = = = = = = Your hint with: "ls -1 *.deb | while read line; do debtap ”$line"; done" .. does not work. I only get ">" in the next line and are able to break with ^C.
Thats the end of the story with this driver of Epson? Any Ideas? Thanks Snorre
Hello,
I try to convert the Epson scanner package (iScan)
I decompressed the "iscan-gt-V200-2.30.4.x64.deb.tar.gz" file into a folder and put the debtab.sh into every of the three folders with an .deb file. a) core b) data c) plugins
... and try to convert the deb-files
I got these messages: = = = = = = = = = = [user@computer data]$ sudo ./debtab.sh iscan-data_1.39.2-1_all.deb ==> Extracting package data... ==> Fixing possible directories structure differencies... ==> Generating .PKGINFO file...

Any further information needed? Does anybody know whats to do?
AND: Is there no possibility to convert ALL three packages in one step?
thanks in advance Snorre
