[sane-devel] possibe enhancement for canon SCSI autoprobing

[Johannes Meixner]

Hello,

see
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=177492
"let SANE driver "canon" do scanner auto-recognition"

Therefore I apply the following patch:

+# Probe for "CANON" on all /dev/sg* devices:

+# Probe only on one fixed device:

-------------------------------------------------------------------

At least I didn't get any problem report since I have it by default
in our sane-backends package - i.e. our /etc/sane.d/canon.conf is
-------------------------------------------------------------------
# canon.conf
