I have stumble upon the source RPM for it and I am also in the process
of getting it to work on el6 (for now, will be another story for el7).

I thinking about moving the install directory from /usr/share/apps
to /opt/* directory, thoughts are welcome. I am doing the build on a
vanilla el6 install and below are the build dependencies, which I plan
to sort out within a few days if time permits.

rpmbuild -ba rpmbuild/SPECS/autoscan.spec
error: Failed build dependencies:
	gnomeui2-devel is needed by autoscan-1.50-1.el6.x86_64
	libao-devel is needed by autoscan-1.50-1.el6.x86_64
	libvorbis-devel is needed by autoscan-1.50-1.el6.x86_64
	net-snmp-devel is needed by autoscan-1.50-1.el6.x86_64
	gtk+2-devel is needed by autoscan-1.50-1.el6.x86_64
	libgtk-vnc-devel is needed by autoscan-1.50-1.el6.x86_64
	libgnome-keyring-devel is needed by autoscan-1.50-1.el6.x86_64
	vte-devel is needed by autoscan-1.50-1.el6.x86_64
	pcap-devel is needed by autoscan-1.50-1.el6.x86_64

This is my hobby and if there anyone with extensive experience I am
happy to get some little tips.
