Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xsane
Currently, Gusty and Feisty use 0.991. Here is the change log since
then...
[---------------------------------------------]
2007 Mar 05: bugfix release xsane-0.994:
this version fixes two bugs
* crash when start scanning (when no ICC/ICM scanner profile is defined)
* postscript output does not work when printed
This version should still be considered as instable.
When color management is enabled in grayscale mode you will get error messages
and strange results!
2007 Mar 04: crash with sane-0.993:
When no ICC/ICM profile is defined then xsane crahses when a scan is started.
There is no way to solve this problem when color management (lcms) is not
compiled in. When color management is compiled in then you can go to
preferences/setup/color management and enter an ICC/ICM color profile for the
scanner.
A fixed version will be released soon.
2007 Mar 03: postscript bug in xsane-0.993 found:
While appling color management support to the postscript code there was
introduced a bug. The created postscript files don`t work in some cases. This
also breaks the usability of the copy mode. The bug will be fixed as soon as
possible. If you find any other bug please report it immediately then I can try
to fix it before the next xsane release.
2007 Feb 26: xsane-0.993 source released:
This is a beta-test release.
News:
* A lot of color management improvements (CMS still in beta test):
o embedded profiles for postscript and PDF
o convert to sRGB
o convert to working color space
* 12 bits/channel support for postscript
* usage of new gtk_file_chooser
* added browse function for project directories
* removed bug in e-mail mode

2007 Feb 11: e-mail bug in xsane-0.992 found:
XSane tells you the mail has been sent but in fact it was not accepted by the
mailserver. So you think the mail has been sent but it has not been sent!
The bug will be fixed in xsane-0.993, but I still have to do some work on
xsane-0.993 before it will be released.
When you need the email mode of xsane please use xsane-0.991 until xsane-0.993
is released.
2007 Jan 25: xsane-0.992 source released
The most important change is rudimentary color management support. Some bugs
and compiler warnings have been fixed.
Please consider this version as beta-code, it may crash or produce unexpected
results, especially with color management enabled.
[---------------------------------------------]
I propose updating XSane and coupling it with the Adobe ICC profiles.
May be useful for Gimp too.
