Hi,
I was having a bit of a stab at the orphaned package list today, and noticed
that libtool1.4 is down to be removed after Sarge releases.
The following packages still declare a build dependency on libtool1.4:

Hi,
For those of you interested, I've uploaded resmgr 1.0-1 to
experimental (must go through NEW, etc.).
I'll upload a version of sane-backends built with resmgr support to
experimental when sane-backends 1.0.15 will be released (end of next
week, IIRC).
I plan to have SANE built with resmgr sup

Hello,
Noticed this a couple of days back, and it's one of those things that
stay on your mind and nag away at you until you become functional.
I'm not up to taking on anything as advanced as this, but I thought
perhaps others may be interested.
