Scanner lists contain USB vendor/product ids and some statistics now. Udev/hotplug lists are generated autmatically from the .desc files now. Portability fixes (especially for DragonFlyBSD and HP/UX). Build system updates. Updated translations. Documentation updates. Bugfixes.
Will take a little time, I am afraid... and there's still bug #135527 around which should maybe be fixed en passent.
if it's not too much work it'd be great to have a working ebuild first, since there are many new supported scanner. maybe make sane backends configurable in a later release, especially if it still takes some time to finish. thanks.
OK, ok... unimproved ebuild in CVS.
