Package: scanbuttond
Version: 0.2.3-4
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
If there is no scanner attached to the system (e.g. a laptop) and
scanbuttond is running it will inform us of it's lack of scanners
to monitor every two seconds via syslog. I have attached a patch
that adds a --quiet option to stop this behavior.
Also submitted upstream.
