Control: tags -1 +patch
The autotools scripts here are very old. See
https://gitlab.com/sane-project/frontends/-/issues/40
I wasn't able to easily run autoreconf without libgimp2.0-dev
installed but we can't have that installed because it is going away.
So I just stopped running autoreconf. That might mean that this code
will fail to build on newer architectures.
Once I skipped running dh_autoreconf, then dh_auto_configure stopped
working because it doesn't recognize --runstatedir= so I manually ran
./configure instead. This is suggested in dh_auto_configure's manpage
and there are a few other Debian packages doing similarly.
I'm attaching the patches to make those changes.
Alternatively, you may want to try packaging a git snapshot which now
uses GTK3 instead of GTK2 and may work with gimp 3. If you do that,
you might also need
https://gitlab.com/sane-project/frontends/-/merge_requests/16
Is anyone even using sane-frontends? It might make more sense to
remove sane-frontends from Debian. People can use apps like
simple-scan or xsane or kylin-scanner instead.
Thank you,
Jeremy Bícha
