Re: Compiling simple-scan

 

Hi Tammo,

It appears you have a version of vala < 0.22 (which is when the
--gresources flag was added). Ubuntu 13.04 only has vala 0.20 so you
will not be able to compile simple-scan without installing a new
version of vala.

Note that Ubuntu 13.04 is end-of-life; I'd recommending upgrading to a
supported version (Ubuntu 14.04).
