PdfMasher
Current status: unmaintained
I'm the only maintainter of PdfMasher and I've lost interest in ebooks a good while ago (back to good old paper). Therefore, this app is unmaintained.
If you're interested in assuming maintainership of this app, don't hesitate to fork it off. When you feel you're on a good enough track to assume maintainership, it will be a pleasure for me to point to your fork. Just tell me.

How to build PdfMasher from source
The very, very, very easy way
If you're on Linux or Mac, there's a bootstrap script that will make building very, very easy. There might be some things that you need to install manually on your system, but the bootstrap script will tell you when what you need to install. You can run the bootstrap with:
./bootstrap.sh
and follow instructions from the script. You can then ignore the rest of the build documentation.
Prerequisites installation
Then, you have to make sure that your system has its "non-pip-installable" prerequisites installed:
- All systems: Python 3.3+.
- Mac OS X: The last XCode to have the 10.7 SDK included.
- Windows: Visual Studio 2010, PyQt 4.8+, cx_Freeze and Advanced Installer (you only need the last two if you want to create an installer)
On Ubuntu, the apt-get command to install all pre-requisites is:
$ apt-get install python3-dev python3-pyqt4 pyqt4-dev-tools python3-setuptools
Setting up the virtual environment
Use Python's built-in pyvenv to create a virtual environment in which we're going to install our.
Python-related dependencies. pyvenv is built-in Python but, unlike its virtualenv predecessor,
it doesn't install setuptools and pip (unless you use Python 3.4+), so it has to be installed
manually:
$ pyvenv --system-site-packages env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ python get-pip.py
Then, you can install pip requirements in your virtualenv:
$ pip install -r requirements-[osx|win].txt
([osx|win] depends, of course, on your platform. On other platforms, just use requirements.txt).
Actual building and running
With your virtualenv activated, you can build and run PdfMasher with these commands:
$ python configure.py
$ python build.py
$ python run.py
You can also package PdfMasher into an installable package with:
$ python package.py
