[sane-devel] Schedule for release of sane-backends 1.0.23
sane-backends development is now open. I will recommit recent pixma changes, and fix the config typo in a few hours. I have not updated the docs on the website, or made the release announcement yet- I am still trying to cleanup a few things, and find a place to put these files, since alioth seems borked, and I cannot get a response from the admins. allan On Tue, Aug 14, 2012 at 9:24 AM, m. allan noah kitno455 at gmail.com wrote: Sane-backends is in code freeze.

We are going to delay the release of sane-backends 1.0.23 by another week. This will give some more time for fixing recently discovered bugs. Sane-backends is still in feature freeze. Bugs and documentation may still be fixed, but major improvements should be avoided.

Rudi- thanks for the reminder. I committed your patches last week, but I've been so busy I forgot to say so.

FYI: Fedora 17, OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion), Mingw32, and Mingw64 are still in good shape as of today's rebase. I'll do one more test close to Aug. 5th date. Chris

I tested this with (K)Ubuntu (10.04, 12.04), LinuxMint (LMDE, 12, 13) and Fedora 17. (1) Find the location of standard libsane. It's different for each distribution. On 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04 it is here: '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/'. On 64 bit Fedora 17 it is here: '/usr/lib64/'. (2) Decide where you want to install the new SANE version. (2.1) You can overwrite standard libsane. Then you need to do some extra configuration for SANE: './configure --libdir=usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu'. Here you need to use the path found in (1). If you also want to replace the binaries, configuration, translations, etc. please read './configure --help'. (2.2) You can set symbolic links to the new driver. I assume that the path found in (1) is '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/' and new SANE has been installed to '/usr/local/lib/': cd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu sudo ln -sf /usr/local/lib/libsane.so.1.0.23 libsane.so.1 sudo ln -sf /usr/local/lib/sane/libsane-pixma.la . (3) Copy 'tools/udev/libsane.rules' to '/etc/udev/rules.d/'. (4) To avoid using the scanner with root rights, add your user to the group 'scanner'. If this group doesn't exist you must create it (I needed to do this in Fedora 17). (5) Reconnect your scanner to the USB bus and logoff/login if you needed to do (4) or just reboot. After reading your explanations I don't understand, why scanimage recognizes the scanner after some time / days? I don't see a permission problem in this case or something changes the permissions automatically. I compiled with default values. While it didn't work for a while with Ubuntu 12.04, it works now without problems, as I described in my earlier mail. Maybe after a reboot your system prefers the new lib in /usr/local/lib/. I don't have an other explanation. Please check the used pixma backend with e.g.: 'SANE_DEBUG_PIXMA=2 /usr/local/bin/scanimage -L'. The response must contain this line: '[pixma] pixma version 0.16.4'. Which pixma backend version does standard scanimage use? If there still are unclear relations between system's libsane and the desired one, you should follow my explanations. BTW I have a Nikon LS50 too. How do I compile drivers for the Canon 9000F and the Nikon LS50, but not the other drivers? How must I change: BACKENDS=pixma ./configure I found Nikon LS50 in coolscan3. Then you can use this line for configuration: 'BACKENDS=pixma coolscan3 ./configure' Cheers, Rolf

Everybody with a new pixma scanner, especially CS9000F, is invited to fetch the latest git version or daily snapshot and to test all functions. Please report both, success and problems. I mentioned it already a few times, eg Datum: Tue, 17 Apr 2012 20:14:32 +0200 Von: ?l ??gn?r sane at ml1104.corr.*.* An: sane-devel at lists.alioth.debian.* Betreff: Re: [sane-devel] Canon 9000F I don't know what I could do wrong. The problem exists with Opensuse and (X)Ubuntu. After compilation _nothing_ works as root. A few hours later usr/local/bin/sane-find-scanner found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x1908 [CanoScan]) at libusb:003:002 2 days later with my last compilation: /usr/local/bin/scanimage -L No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages). There have been times, when scanimage -L worked after a few hours and after 3 days. And I did nothing except waiting. dpkg -l | grep -i sane | cut -c1-78 ii libcommon-sense-perl 3.4-1 ii libsane 1.0.22-7ubuntu ii libsane:i386 1.0.22-7ubuntu ii libsane-common1.0.22-7ubuntu ii libsane-hpaio 3.12.2-1ubuntu ii libsane-perl 0.03-1build2 ii python-imaging-sane 1.1.7-4 ii sane 1.0.14-9 ii sane-utils1.0.22-7ubuntu ii xsane 0.998-3ubuntu2 ii xsane-common 0.998-3ubuntu2 uname -r 3.2.0-26-generic -- ?l

In last month, I've done test compiles on Fedora 17, mingw32 (epson2 compiled only), mingw64 (epson2 only), and OS X 10.6 and we are good to go on those platforms. If I see new code submissions, I'll do another test compile around Aug 1 and fix any issues. Chris
[sane-devel] Schedule for release of sane-backends 1.0.23
There is quite a bit of updated code (and many months) since our last release. In particular, there have been some bug fixes to regressions in a couple backends, and some major additions to others (genesys, pixma, fujitsu, etc). Seems like it is time for a release.
