Package: sane-utils
Version: 1.0.19-12
Near the end of the installation, sane-utils adds a line to /etc/inetd.conf
that you just have to activate in order to start saned via inetd. It also
gives a heads-up to xinetd users that they need to convert this to xinetd's
different format. However, the line it shows is
#<off># sane-port\tstream\ttcp\tnowait\tsaned:saned\t/usr/sbin/saned saned
i.e. all tabs actually written as '\t'. I guess this is also given to itox
lateron, which also can't use this but needs a string with tabs or spaces
instead and therefore doesn't generate any output.
BTW: while you're at it, why not actually install that script into xinetd?
Just add a "disable=yes" and it also doesn't start without the admin
explicitly activating it.
thanks
Uli

Hi,
update-inetd will be rewritten to transparently support both inetd and xinetd.
In the meantime, in version 4.32 onwards, I've completely disabled the
invocation of itox, and instead print a message that points to its manpage.
Cheers,
Serafeim
