Support will be added in 1.0.31. It's already mentioned in the NEWS file https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/-/blob/master/NEWS > While searching for informations myself: > 1. Its man-page [2] points to nirvana. That's because the backend has not been included in a release yet and is something that we might want to fix. Please submit an issue. > 2. The ChangeLogs file [3] ends with release 1.0.28. Actually, that points to a ChangeLogs *directory*. We decided to stop updating the ChangeLog in the repository itself because `git log` will tell you anyway. Of course that assumes you have cloned the repository but if you haven't, you can check https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/-/commits/master Our source tarballs, both release and snapshots, include a generated ChangeLog file though. There's also an issue about this https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/-/issues/313 > Thanks for a feedback in advance. > > - Sedat - > > [1] http://www.sane-project.org/lists/sane-backends-cvs.html#S-CANON-LIDE70 > [2] http://www.sane-project.org/man/sane-canon_lide70.5.html > [3] https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/-/tree/master/ChangeLogs > [4] https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/-/merge_requests/247 As for that last merge request, you want to look at 315 instead (as mentioned at the bottom of the feedback on 247).
