Thu Mar 29 14:00:00 2012 jsuchomeAATTsuse.cz
- merge proofread texts

Fri Dec 16 13:00:00 2011 cooloAATTsuse.com
- it\'s actually GPL 2.0 only

Fri Nov 25 13:00:00 2011 cooloAATTsuse.com
- add libtool as buildrequire to avoid implicit dependency

Fri Aug 5 14:00:00 2011 tgoettlicherAATTsuse.de
- fixed .desktop file (bnc #681249)

Thu Feb 10 13:00:00 2011 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.20.1
- Changed the number for DownloadProgress to multiple of 1024
to get nicer looking \"nnn.0 KB\" texts in the Gtk UI.
Using 921600 because /var/lib/YaST2/scanner_database.ycp
is about 890000 bytes in openSUSE 11.4
(see openSUSE/Novell Bugzilla bnc#670675).

Thu Sep 23 14:00:00 2010 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.20.0
- Let the ConfigureBackendDialog automatically proceed to the next
dialog (i.e. to the overview dialog) after successful backend
activation (see openSUSE/Novell Bugzilla bnc#636083).
- Fix determine_active_scanner_backends so that it also detects
active backends with \'_\' or \'-\' characters in the backend name
(see openSUSE/Novell Bugzilla bnc#641111).

Tue Apr 6 14:00:00 2010 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.19.2
- HAL is deprecated and does no longer support to grant read/write
device access permissions for scanners to the currently logged
in \"desktop\" user. Therefore the HAL related code was removed
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#593946).
- Implemented Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#578203 enhancement
to show in the model selection list \"unmaintained driver\"
and added info to the help text so that the user knows
in advance whether or not he could expect some help
if there are issues with an unmaintained driver.
- In case of the \"net\" meta-backend, the [Edit] button in the
OverviewDialog now also launches the \"Scanning via Network\"
dialog even when the \"net\" meta-backend did not recognize
a scanner (see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#578104).

Thu Jan 21 13:00:00 2010 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.19.1
- Adapted to no longer try to install the proprietary packages
iscan, iscan-proprietary-drivers, and iscan-firmware.
Instead show a meaningful user information
when one of those Epson models is to be set up
which require the proprietary Iscan software
so that the user can download and install
the right packages from Avasys on his own
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#569917).
- Reduced too long help text \'regarding firewall\' but
added a link to \'SDB:CUPS and SANE Firewall settings\' at
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:CUPS_and_SANE_Firewall_settings
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#551282).

Wed Jan 13 13:00:00 2010 kmachalkovaAATTsuse.cz
- Adjusted .desktop file(s) to wrap /sbin/yast2/ calls in xdg-su
where root privileges are needed, removed X-KDE-SubstituteUID key
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#540627 and bnc#550073).

Wed Dec 23 13:00:00 2009 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.19.0
- Replaced overcomplicated but nevertheless mostly useless code
for using the YaST SuSEFirewall module by simple generic code
in a ShowFirewallPopup function in the same way as it works
for yast2-printer (compare Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#549065)
and enhanced the help text \"Regarding Firewall\",
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#551282).
- Fixed duplicate button widget with ID `back by
calling Wizard::HideBackButton() before calling
Wizard::SetAbortButton(`back,Label::CancelButton()), see
http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2009-10/msg00528.html
- Added X-KDE-SubstituteUID=true to src/scanner.desktop
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#550073).

Wed Feb 11 13:00:00 2009 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.18.0
- Fixed a typo in a text in Scanner.ycp
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#374628 in particular comment #18).

Thu Dec 4 13:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.17.5
- Since openSUSE 11.1 \'usb_device\' must be replaced by \'usb\' in
HAL fdi files (see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#438867).
Adapted test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions so that it
works for openSUSE 11.1 and is still to some extent
backward compatible with openSUSE 11.0.

Wed Dec 3 13:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.17.4
- Using /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty/70-scanner.fdi
instead of /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/70-scanner.fdi
and /etc/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty/80-scanner.fdi
instead of /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/80-scanner.fdi
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#438867).

Fri Nov 21 13:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.17.3
- Removed the \"Cancel\" button from the Overview dialog
because there is nothing to \"Cancel\" here.
Do no longer restore the outdated default button names
when a dialog is closed to avoid too many visible
changes of button names.
(See Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#440560).

Tue Nov 4 13:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.17.2
- Removed the \"Back\" button from the Overview dialog
and renamed other buttons according to new style guide
by manually overwriting the Wizard module defaults
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#440560 comment #5).
- Replaced Report with Popup and used Popup::ErrorDetails
to show stderr when commands failed (without any change
for translated texts).

Wed Sep 10 14:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.17.1
Run test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions also
for the normal test via the TestBackend function
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#340173).

Wed Sep 10 14:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.17.0
- Applied proofread texts.
- Enforce a safe environment for ExecuteBashCommand.
- Added an translatable error message to DetermineActiveScanners
if there is no response from the \'scanimage\' command
(see V 2.16.9 and Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#387555).
- Added an translatable message to SetScannerAccessPermissions
if HAL does not know about the scanner
(see V 2.16.7 and Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#340173).

Fri May 16 14:00:00 2008 jsrainAATTsuse.cz
- added categories Settings and System into desktop file
(bnc #382778)

Thu May 8 14:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.16.10
- Implemented a progress bar while creating the scanner database
without any new or changed text because of the \'text freeze\'
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#388144).

Wed May 7 14:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.16.9
- Added an explanatory error message to determine_active_scanners
if there is no response from the \'scanimage\' command.
Because of the YaST \'text freeze\' this error message cannot be
translated for openSUSE 11.0 so that currently it is only a
simple stderr message, (see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#387555).

Tue Apr 29 14:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.16.8
- Skipped \"SCSI via USB\" scanners in autodetect_scanners
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#382744).

Tue Apr 22 14:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.16.7
- Added tests to test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions
if HAL knows about the scanner and show an explanatory
error message if not. The error message is only shown
when a driver is activated but not if a driver is
deactivated. Because of the YaST \'text freeze\' this
error message cannot be translated for openSUSE 11.0
so that currently it is only a simple stderr message,
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#340173).

Thu Apr 17 14:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.16.6
- In the test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions script
use info.subsystem instead of the deprecated info.bus
for the HAL 80-scanner.fdi file.

Tue Apr 15 14:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.16.5
- Add an exception to Scanner.ycp so that the fallback entry
for the hpaio driver with the special USB ID \"0x03f0:0x0000\"
is preselected for all HPLIP USB all-in-one devices
which are autodetected by \"hp-probe -busb -escan\"
in /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/autodetect_scanners.
- Since HPLIP version 2.8.4 there is no longer any startup daemon.
I.e. the hpaio driver is now just a normal driver.
The hplip init script still exists and was adapted to provide
backward compatibility but all it does is to stop a possibly
running hplip daemon.
Accordingly the setup_hplip_scanner_service script was adapted
to only disable both ptal and hplip completely.
As a consequence some special popups regarding the hplip service
were removed and the help text was simplified.

Wed Apr 9 14:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.16.4
- Modified yast2-scanner.spec.in to exclude displaytest from the
files which are sent to /usr/lib/rpm/find-requires so that the
yast2-scanner RPM does no longer require X libraries (libX11,
libXau, libxcb, and libxcb-xlib) so that it can be installed
in a system without X.
Nevertheless it is still architecture dependant because of its
displaytest binary.
It does not matter if displaytest fails orderly because its
XOpenDisplay call fails or if it crashes because of missing
libraries. All what matters is that displaytest finds out
if a graphical window can be opened or not.

Wed Mar 26 13:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.16.3
- Let \"Restart Detection\" toggle the autodetection behaviour
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#310518).
- Enhanced how hp-setup is launched to be more fail-safe.
In particular added a small C program displaytest which tests
with XOpenDisplay whether or not a X window can be opened
(there is no such tool available in xorg-x11) which makes
yast2-scanner no longer a noarch RPM.

Tue Mar 25 13:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.16.2
- Added much better HP all-in-one device support.
Those devices are now autodetected at the USB and if there
is already a CUPS queue (the latter in particular for network
HP all-in-one devices which do not work without a CUPS queue)
and additionally hp-setup can be launched.
- Initially show only USB scanners with known USB IDs.
Show all USB devices which look like scanners only after
\"Restart Detection\" (see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#310518).

Wed Mar 19 13:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.16.1
- Added hint how to set up HP all-in-one network scanners
to the help text (see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#310476).
- Replaced the \"scanimage -d ... -T\" test
by \"scanimage -d ... -v >/dev/null\"
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#344534).

Tue Mar 18 13:00:00 2008 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.16.0
- Removed the RPM test for \"sane-backends\" from
create_scanner_database because all what matters in this script
is whether or not the description files exist.
Furthermore the YaST scanner module tests during startup
if \"sane-backends\" is installed (and installs it if not).
- Skipped \"SCSI via USB\" scanners in
test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#341565).
- Added more explanatory text for the proprietary iscan driver
on x86_64 (see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#337816).

Mon Mar 17 13:00:00 2008 jsrainAATTsuse.cz
- Added \'StartupNotify=true\' to the desktop file
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#304964).

Thu Jul 19 14:00:00 2007 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.15.5
- Replaced \"installation source\" by \"repository\" in the texts.

Wed Jul 18 14:00:00 2007 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.15.4
- Mentioned in the help text that USB devices which are
no scanners might be detected as a USB scanner
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#260991).

Thu Jun 21 14:00:00 2007 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.15.3
- Adapted test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions to be prepared
for HPLIP version 2.x.

Wed Jun 13 14:00:00 2007 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.15.2
- Adapted test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions according to the
currently newest changes in HAL (see Novell Bugzilla bnc#250659)
and added a test to make sure that the USB verdor and product IDs
do not contain only zeroes (see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#283132).
- Adapted setup_hplip_scanner_service to be prepared for
HPLIP version 2.x (but be backward compatible).

Fri May 25 14:00:00 2007 jsrainAATTsuse.cz
- Removed outdated translations from .desktop-files
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#271209).

Tue Apr 17 14:00:00 2007 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.15.1
- Added test for Package::Available == nil (when there is no
installation source available).

Mon Jan 29 13:00:00 2007 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.15.0
- Package \'sane\' was renamed into \'sane-backends\'.
Package \'hp-officeJet\' was dropped.
Adapted it so that it works with \'sane-backends\'
and dropped support for \'hp-officeJet\'.

Wed Nov 29 13:00:00 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.14.11
- Fixed test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions to search only
in field 2 of the lsscsi output if it is SCSI type \"scanner\" and
to search only in field 3 if it is manufactuer \"HP\" or \"EPSON\"
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#223875).

Mon Nov 20 13:00:00 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.14.10
- Fixed OverviewDialog() regarding the \'net\' meta-backend so that
click \'Edit\' or \'Delete\' launches the network scanning dialog
if the \'net\' meta-backend is used.
- Fixed OverviewContents() so that a (local) autodetected scanner
is show to the user even if its device (e.g. \"libusb:001:002\")
appears also in the device info of the \'net\' meta-backend for a
remote scanner (e.g. \"net:192.168.1.2:epson:libusb:001:002\").

Fri Nov 17 13:00:00 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.14.9
- Fixed creation of interface_and_usbid_string in the model_items
list (set interface_and_usbid_string to the empty string if
the scanner has neither SCSI nor USB).

Thu Nov 16 13:00:00 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.14.8
- Using better syntax for the model preselection code
(regarding access integer values in term types).

Wed Nov 15 13:00:00 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.14.7
- Improved how a model is preselected in the model_items list.

Tue Nov 7 13:00:00 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.14.6
- Improved when the the info regarding outdated hpoj pops up.
Moved it from the ActivateBackend function directly into the
SelectModelDialog which avoids that the user must go \"Back\"
to the SelectModelDialog to select the up-to-date hpaio driver.
- Added a help text regarding the most often reported problem
regarding scanner setup (a driver is set up but no scanner
is recognized by the driver).

Mon Nov 6 13:00:00 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.14.5
- Improved test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions to make
manufacturer specific entries for SCSI \"processors\".
- Fixed when the info regarding outdated hpoj pops up (must be
before the hp-officeJet package may get installed).

Tue Oct 31 13:00:00 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.14.4
- Replaced complicated SetUsbScannerAccessPermissions()
and SetScsiScannerAccessPermissions() functions by a simpler
test_and_set_scanner_access_permissions script and call this
script from a simple SetScannerAccessPermissions() function
(for background info see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#160899).
- Added user information regarding outdated hpoj driver.
- Fixed possible tmp races in some scripts (only $TMP_DATA
was created using mktemp but not $TMP_DATA.raw).

Mon Sep 11 14:00:00 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.14.3
- Disable showing Progress from SuSEFirewall::Read call and
SuSEFirewall::Write call to follow \"a YaST style\"
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#202351).

Fri Aug 18 14:00:00 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.14.2
- Improved the user information when errors happen in
SetScsiScannerAccessPermissions().
- Changed a misleading map name: \"bash_result\"->\"result\"

Thu Aug 17 14:00:00 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.14.1
- Improved the automated pre-selection of an autodetected scanner
in the list of all available scanner models.
For USB scanners the \"usbid\" entries in the desciption files
are used if available. This results often an unique match
so that the matching model can be pre-selected in the list.
For SCSI scanners the first word of the model description
is used as autodetected manufacturer name to show by default
only those SCSI scanners of the list of all available models
where the autodetected manufacturer name is found in the list.
Added a \"Show Complete List\" button so that the user can
easily access all available models if the automated
pre-selection may result too few models.
- Fixed that empty-looking error messages (e.g. only a linefeed)
are shown to the user.

Tue Aug 15 14:00:00 2006 jsmeixAATTsuse.de
- V 2.14.0
- Increased MAXIMUM_WAIT in test_scanner_backend to 120 seconds
because otherwise it is early aborted for some scanners
which need a long time to warm up the lamp.
- Test also for \"hpfax\" in DependantPrintQueueExists() function
(see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#184824).
- Fixed SetScsiScannerAccessPermissions(): First enable sane-dev
then (re)start it.
