[sane-devel] Installingproblem with parallellportscanner and Sane.

Sun, 27 Feb 2005 14:14:32 +0100

Hi!
I read in the installationmanual
(http://penguin-breeder.org/sane/mustek_pp/) under "Known distribution
specific issues" that Fedora Core 1 has to remove the symbolic link
libsane.so.1, is that advice for Fedora Core 3 to ?

Sincerely,
