Hi Henning,
sane should only install the header sane.h and saneopts.h.
The headers sanei*.h are only for sane internal (thats why it
is called sanei) usage. sanei*.h should not be installed
to the system. (should be fixed in sane-1.0.4)
sane.h and saneopts.h do not use any #include
I do not plan to create a package that contains xsane and xscanimage.
I think:
scanimage - should be kept in the sane package
xscanimage - should be published in an own package
xcam - should be published in an own package
scanimage is not very large and is important for tests, so it
should be always available.
In the most cases a user needs only one of xscanimage/xsane,
so it does not make sense to create a package that includes both
xcam is only interesting for cameras or may be the bttv backend.
So most users do not need it.
We should prepare that for sane-1.0.4
are there any time-plans for sane-1.0.4?
Bye
Oliver
