Package: sane-utils
Version: 1.1.1-2

SANE provides a backend driver named umax_pp to supports Umax parallel port flatbed scanners. This is a library (libsane-umax_pp.so.1) found in the Debian package libsane1.

SANE also includes a command-line utility named umax_pp for testing, which is found in the Debian package sane-utils.

As of package version 1.0.27-1, the man page sane-umax_pp(5) was moved to the sane-utils package, along with a symbolic link located at umax_pp(5). However, this man page is only for the driver; it provides no information at all about the command-line utility. Even worse, the man page is not present on the system if the driver is installed but the command-line utilities are not.

This change needs to be reversed, by moving sane-umax_pp(5) back into the libsane-common package, and removing the umax_pp(5) symbolic link. If a man page is desired for the umax_pp utility, it will have to be written.
