Hi all, After six months, sane-backends-1.0.29 has been released. You can find the latest source tarballs and checksums on the [releases page][1].
[1]: https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/-/releases That page also mentions a "Source code" pull down menu from which you can download the git repository corresponding to the release. Please note that these archives do *not* include generated files such as the configure script, Makefile.in files and more. A nicely formatted version of the release notes can be found at the same location but, for your convenience, the "raw" Markdown has been included below. ### Backends - adds an `escl` backend (theoretically supporting *all* AirPrint devices with a scan unit) - adds support for 23 new scanner models via existing backends - significantly changes `genesys` and `pixma` backends - fixes bugs in `canon_dr`, `fujitsu`, `hp3900`, `mustek_usb2`, `plustek` and `xerox_mfp` backends - fixes *all* compiler warnings on Debian 10 (#120) - fixes portability issues for uClibc-ng and MacOS builds - adds support to record and replay USB I/O traffic - adds timestamps to debug logs ### Frontends - fixes a 32-bit arithmetic overflow issue in `scanimage` ### Documentation - updates translations for British English, Catalan, German, Ukrainian, Valencian - adds `scangearmp2` external backend descriptions - updates `hpaio` and `utsushi` external backend descriptions - adds the `ChangeLogs/` directory to the source tarball (#103) ### Build - additionally requires `libcurl` and `libxml2` to build the `escl` backend - requires `libxml2` for USB I/O recording and replay functionality - re-enables pthread support for backends that use its API directly, irrespective of the `pthread_t` type (#153) - moves the `genesys` and `pixma` backends to a directory of their own In case you encounter any issues with this release, please contact the [sane-devel mailing list][2] or [submit an issue][3].
