Please file a bug. And have someone vote for it / confirm it. It will
not be fixed unless it is know, even *if* release is delayed!

kio_lan works for me, kio_smb does not work well.

I confirmed your bug, since you had not marked it as new. If you care
about your bugs, you *must* ensure they are confirmed ...

Not confirmed, would you like to confirm it, and provide a config file
(/etc/sane.d/saned.conf IIRC) and some debugging (such as getent hosts
<IP in file>).

Not confirmed, and 12MB of junk is a lot of wasted space, we can fit a
lot of really important things in that space.

I feel your sentiment, but please, do your part to try and have your
bugs fixed (ensure they are confirmed, otherwise developers may not have
time to look at them, and the bug summary in bugzilla will look better
than the distro really is).
