Hi,

My PPA provides the post release versions (1.0.27+git{date}) now!

If somebody needs the recent SANE release instead of the version from
SANE daily git snapshot, she|he can use my new PPA[2].

This comes while I'm using the daily git snapshot, which is built every
night and provided on SANE's project website.

Thanks!  I'm off now, checking my pending patch queues ;-)

Writing the release notes must have been quite a bit work, seeing that
there were well over 500 commits.

Unless you're using Rolf's PPA[1], that's up to your distribution's
sane-backends package maintainer.

 [1] https://launchpad.net/~rolfbensch/+archive/ubuntu/sane-git

If you do use Rolf's PPA, packages should be there in a day (or two).

Hope this helps,

[sane-devel] Sane-backends 1.0.27 has been released

2017-05-22 Thread m. allan noah
2017-05-22: SANE-Backends-1.0.27 (see Note 1) has been released:

* Significant enhancements to canon_dr, epjitsu, epsonds, fujitsu,
genesys, hp3500, pixma and xerox-mfp backends.
* Minor updates, bugfixes or scanners added in several backends.
* 30+ new scanner models supported.
* Made libusb-1.0 the default for USB support (see Note 2).
* Switched code from C90 to C99 (Thanks to Volker Diels-Grabsch).
* Updated Linux USB3 workaround (see Note 3).
* Documentation and translation updates.
* Bugfixes (Avahi, threading, USB, ICC/PNG/JPEG, etc).
* Reduced compiler warnings, improved code (see Note 4).

Note 1: There is no 1.0.26 release of sane-backends. That number was
skipped so that our development version numbers would more clearly be
an extension of the prior release. This should make packaging a little
easier for our downstream users.

Note 2: On all systems, the --enable-libusb* flags are now ignored.
Instead, the --with-usb and --without-usb flags now control support.
When neither is given, USB support will be enabled if possible and
disabled otherwise. If --with-usb is requested but not possible,
./configure will fail. There is no support to prefer libusb-0.1 over
libusb-1.0. When libusb-1.0 is not found, libusb-0.1 will be tried.

Note 3: The Linux USB3 workaround which was added in version 1.0.25 is
now disabled by default. If you have difficulty using a scanner which
previously worked, or intermittent scanner availability, try setting
the new environment variable SANE_USB_WORKAROUND=1 before starting
your frontend.

Note 4: A special thanks goes to Olaf Meeuwissen for picking up the
janitorial duties in sane-backends. He has found and fixed a large
number of long-standing bugs, curated our bug tracker, improved our
build scripts and docs, and provided user support. Thank you Olaf!
