    May I, as an ordinary user, suggest the attached mini-patch for the pnm-backend
    (for the case it's still included in Sane-1.0.5)?
    The problem:
    If you type in a valid filename like
      /home/bla/testimage.pnm
    and then delete some characters like
      /home/bla/testimage.p
    SANE_INFO_RELOAD_PARAMS isn't set and therefore the frontends can't
    update their displays correctly. The patch (against pnm.c in Sane-1.0.4) ensures
    that SANE_INFO_RELOAD_PARAMS is set whenever the string changes.
