[sane-devel] Mac OS - Mojave: sane not starting. Error related to Avahi

[Umberto Cerrato]

Hi Tony.

Unfortunately I cannot help you, since I never had this error.
But I take the chance to ask you how did you installed sane-backends on macOS?

Please, I really need it. And many people are in need too.

Thank you in advance
