Package: libsane Version: 1.0.25-4.1 Severity: normal Instead of having a huge udev rules file, sane-backends can generate a hwdb file [1] to tag scanner devices. This provides much better performance. As hwdb is more limited then udev rules files, there are a few entries that can't be expressed via hwdb. For those, a udev rule is still required. sane-backends can generate such a hwdb+udev combo when using $(CURDIR)/tools/sane-desc -s $(CURDIR)/doc/descriptions -m udev+hdwb → generates the udev rules file $(CURDIR)/tools/sane-desc -s $(CURDIR)/doc/descriptions -m hwdb → generates the hwdb file
The make sure to install the rules file in /lib/udev/rules.d and the hwdb file in /lib/udev/hwdb.d/ This make file rule can be dropped then $(CURDIR)/tools/sane-desc -s $(CURDIR)/doc/descriptions -m udev+acl Thanks for considering, Michael [1] https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/hwdb.html -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (200, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.11.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages libsane depends on: ii acl 2.2.52-3+b1 ii adduser 3.115 ii libavahi-client3 0.6.32-2 ii libavahi-common3 0.6.32-2 ii libc6 2.24-12 ii libgphoto2-6 2.5.14-1 ii libgphoto2-port12 2.5.14-1 ii libieee1284-3 0.2.11-13 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:1.5.1-2 ii libsane-common 1.0.25-4.1 ii libtiff5 4.0.8-4 ii libusb-1.0-0 2:1.0.21-2 ii makedev 2.3.1-93 ii udev 234-2 Versions of packages libsane recommends: ii libsane-extras 1.0.22.4 ii sane-utils 1.0.25-4.1 Versions of packages libsane suggests: ii avahi-daemon 0.6.32-2 pn hplip <none> -- no debconf information
