[sane-devel] Re: Darwin/MacOSX

[Karl Heinz Kremer]

It's possilbe that it's not a problem with Sane. There are two other systems
involved: libusb and Darwin. My plan is to replace libusb with some code that
talks to the Darwin USB functions directly. I started this some time ago, and
the first result was that I found a bug in Sane (which is fixed in CVS). 
Somebody reported success yesterday or the day before with a Canon scanner
under OS X. Henning asked for more information, but I have not seen anything
yet.

The libusb device name (-7:002) is OK, that's just the way Darwin numbers
it's USB buses.
