SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) Scanner Drivers

Edit Package sane-backends

The software consists of SANE scanner drivers, "scanimage," and the
"saned" daemon.

A SANE scanner driver is used via a SANE front-end. This package
contains the command line front-end "scanimage". There are various
graphical front-ends like "xscanimage" (package sane-frontends), XSane
(package xsane), and the KDE front-end Kooka (package
kdegraphics3-scan).

The "saned" daemon provides the service "sane-port" to access scanners
that are connected to a server via network from client hosts that run
the "net" meta driver.

- Move udev rules from /etc/udev/ to /usr/udev.
- Package libsane1 library as a separate package. This avoids
  pulling in the backends just a application links to it.
- Hide the backends from automatic Provides generation, as these
  all have a libsane.so SONAME.
- Update to 1.0.29:
  * 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 genesys and pixma backends to a directory of their own
- Update to 1.0.28:
  * Backends
    + adds a ricoh2 backend
    + adds support for 40+ new scanner models
    + significantly changes canon_dr, fujitsu, genesys, gt68xx,
    + hp5590 and, pixma backends
    + fixes bugs in as6e, avision, mustek and plustek backends
    + fixes scores of compiler warnings
  * Frontends
    + adds, changes and removes options for saned (see man 8 saned
      for details)
      - adds: -l (listen), -D (daemonize), -o (once),
        -e (stderr), -u (user)
      - removes: -s (syslog). Use -a -d level -o -f for the
        old behavior
      - changes: -d (debug). Use -a -d level -o -f -e for the
        old behavior
    + saned now cancels scans if the data connections appears to
      have gone away (after 4 seconds by default, configurable in
      saned.conf)
    + adds --output-file option to scanimage
    + adds --help option to scan-find-scanner
    + changes sane-desc to create relative hyperlinks
  * Documentation
    + adds translations for Catalan, Hebrew and Valencian
    + updates translations for British English, Dutch, German and
    + Ukrainian
    + marks unmaintained backends as such
    + documents USB workaround in sane-usb manual page
  * Build
    + requires a C++11 compatible compiler for the genesys backend
    + requires a JPEG library when building the pixma backend
    + fixes unneeded linking when not using preloadable backend
      support
    + disables pthread support for systems with non-integral
      pthread_t type
    + normalizes trailing whitespace in source code files. If you
      have local patches that no longer apply, have a look at the
      whitespace ignoring options of patch and git apply.
