I don't know all makers of scanners that aren't supported by a stock sane. Also if I wrote a mail to [email protected] or [email protected] telling them that their driver doesn't work with the newest experimental package from debian, but that I don't know any details what has changed I don't expect them to panick and to do something.
The "provides" looks like being a first step, though, if the two libraries are in fact compatible to each other: This would at least allow to install scanner drivers from 3rd party manufacturers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1707352 Title: the change from libsane to libsane1 broke many (all?) 3rd party plug- ins for sane To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-backends/+bug/1707352/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
