Hi Kelly,

sane-release for 1.0.31 is available on both repositories:
https://launchpad.net/~rolfbensch/+archive/ubuntu/sane-release
and
https://launchpad.net/~sane-project/+archive/ubuntu/sane-release

I planned no auto switching for this ppa. I still added a note to the
old ppa.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Rolf
