Description Stefan Behlert 2009-05-18 14:07:51 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #450061 +++

The following package contains files that may be better put into a -devel
package. Please evaluate:

sane-backends-1.0.19-100.20

Johannes, the referenced comment only speaks about a minimal system. 
I don't care about that fact so much (at the moment), more on the fact that a non-devel package seems to have stuff that should be in a devel-package.
If that's not the case, or we only talk about one file, Iit's fine. But we should really distinguish between devel and non-devel stuff :)
Comment 3 Johannes Meixner 2009-05-19 10:02:39 UTC
Have a look at
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=450061#c8
from which this report was derived.

I think that two *.h files (sane.h and saneopts.h)
are also not worth the effort.

If I am wrong, make the priority sufficiently high
to enforce that I spend my time on such an issue and
provide a reasoning why this is a higher business-case
compared to my other work.

No, that's fine. Unfortunately the derived bug was so messed up that it was better to have this clarified in different ones. At least for me. Thanks for taking the time to look at that.
