Hello, here are my comments about this bug.
The first question is: Does the name of the package libsane1 match the rules? This has to be answered clearly. In the Debian Policy it says in section 8.1 paragraph 2 " Normally, the run-time shared library and its SONAME symlink should be placed in a package named librarynamesoversion, [...]". Thus, the packet name libsane1 does not contradict the rules of the policy and is therefore not objectionable. The next question is to decide when to change the name. The run-time shared library must be placed in a package whose name changes whenever the SONAME of the shared library changes. [...]". The "must" implies IMHO's obligation to change the package name accordingly. But this was not done a long time ago for reasons unknown to me. The fix of this bug "must" therefore be allowed by the maintainer. So I take the liberty of closing this bug.
