unpaper

Could someone build an unpaper.xzm, version 7.0 or fresh from github https://github.com/unpaper/unpaper? We can getmod v6.1 but it's rather old. (For processing of scanned pages, unpaper is recommended here: https://www.reddit.com/r/pdf/comments/1 ... t/ja33rbq/)

There is version 7 on slackbuilds -- shouldn't be too difficult to create a module.

Thanks, indeed have built myself a module in a few minutes, uploaded here: https://t.me/PorteusX/24/49

The only concern while building was an error about PIL or pytest rather:

Program python3 (pytest, PIL) found: NO modules: PIL
meson.build:43: WARNING: pytest not found, tests will not be performed.

I wonder if it's going to work in the end. Actually, I've been long wondering how to grow the system python environment, or install another, newer and larger python on top or in parallel to the system's one...
