Hi,

I'm one of the developers of SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy;
http://www.mostang.com/sane/). I have looked at the patches in the
FreeBSD ports for SANE and have some comments/questions.

But first some general information: If you have comments/questions
about SANE you can contact me directly. It's also possible to reach
the sane mailing list (sane-devel@mostang.com) directly but you must
be subscribed to this list with the same address from which the article
is sent.

The next SANE release (1.0.4) will be in about 3 weeks. The SANE
package will be split in two packages: sane (for the libraries, net
support and scanimage) and sane-frontends (for the X-frontends
xscanimage and xcam).

Concerning the patches:

patch-ab (O_SYNC is non-POSIX): is fixed in 1.0.4
patch-ac (libsane.la is not installed correctly): is fixed in 1.0.4
patch-ae (missing DBG_INIT and implementation of sanei_scsi_find_devices):
  The DBG_INIT is fixed in 1.0.4. Concerning the rest of the patch: I
  would like to add it to SANE for 1.0.5. Is this possible (SANE is
  GPL, I don't know the licence of the patches in ports)?
patch-af (support new gimp): fixed in 1.0.4

Bye,
  Henning Meier-Geinitz
