I've made a new unstable development snapshot available from
<URL:http://www.student.uit.no/~pere/linux/>. I also generated a
backend list available from
<URL:http://www.student.uit.no/~pere/linux/sane/sane-devel-20000227-backends.html>.
Please check to make sure the backend list is up to date.
To update a previous snapshot using cvs, run 'cvs update -d'. If you
are asked to log in first, run 'cvs login' and use 'anoncvs' as the
password.
We are currently in code freeze before the upcoming release 1.0.2
planned for 2000-03-05. I've reduced the default warning level used
when compiling with GCC. I hope this will remove all compile problems
reported last week.
The only vital unsolved problem left is the shared library naming on
Irix 6.5. The libraries are called libsane-*.2 instead of the
expected libsane-*.1. This makes the DLL backend fail on Irix 6.5.
If anyone knows how to fix this, please post a patch. I will release
1.0.2 even if this problem remains.
Please let us know if there still are problems with this snapshot, and
post patches with documentation updated which should go into the next
distribution.
