Perhaps only sane-frontends directly in openSUSE is sufficient and xsane could be provided via a "third-party" repository?
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.
After I sent both mails, I waited one week for any reply before I submitted my drop requests for Factory.
I must have missed those in the noise. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
