Package: libsane1
Version: 1.0.27-1~experimental2
Dear all,
sane-backends source package generates libsane1 that break libsane. Some
package is based on libsane, on my Debian 8.9 "Jessie" machine it breaks:
*colord
* hplip
* printer-driver-postscript-hp
* simple-scan
* xsane
If libsane1 provides the same API as libsane it could be a good idea to
edit the debian/control to add a "provide" section to indicate that
libsane1 provide libsane. I've attached a patch to add this proposal
into "debian/control".
FYI, I see a version 1.0.27-1~experimental3 in git but not in the
experimental repository.
Best regards.
