Meanwhile I've talked to Manfred Tremmel wo maintains xsane on
Packman. He does not seem to have a particular interest in
maintaining xsane either. It's there only for historical reasons. So
the argument "it's at Packman" counts even less. Since I need xsane
personally I'd undrop it and act as maintainer. The xsane home page
mentions potential incompatibilities with newer sane versions
though. Resolving those has to happen upstream. I hope you're not
going to upgrade sane-backends until such issues are fixed.

I must have missed those in the noise.
