If the SANE project had two trees, I would provide both trees via our openSUSE build service. I like to provide only what is "officially accepted" by the SANE project. If you like to build your particular sane-backends version, you could use the openSUSE build service as well - it is available for everybody - but you would need to sign up before you could use it: http://en.opensuse.org/ http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Development http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Build_Service https://build.opensuse.org/ Kind Regards Johannes Meixner -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany AG Nuernberg, HRB 16746, GF: Markus Rex
