The .DEB files have been tested with Ubuntu 15.04, 14.04 (32/64)
The .RPM files have been tested with Fedora 22 (32/64)
The .Exe have been tested with Windows 7, 8, 10

If possible try to use a 64bit Version, since high scan resolutions
(and possibly 16bit) will result in a very high memory consumption. 

The currently still relevant Ubuntu 14.04 cannot run the .DEB files, 
hence I added builds for Ubuntu 14.04. The reason is a different OpenMP
Version. I will try to link OpenMP statically in a future version.

        - commands:
                mkdir build
                cd build
                cmake path/to/scannerExtract-X.Y.Z/scannerExtract/ \
