Comment 27 for bug 208405

Currently they provide also for 9.10 deb packages (32 and 64 bit) and a wider range of their products (including the Perfection V10) are supported. Packages and sources can be downloaded here: http://www.avasys.jp/lx-bin2/linux_e/scan/DL1.do

My question is, can Ubuntu also offer these packages via their repositories since GPL and LGPL licenses apply and source code is also offered?

When Ubuntu is offering these packages, it will be available directly on an Ubuntu release and also be thoroughly tested and integrated.
