[sane-devel] xsane GTK3 branch

[Ralph Little]

Hi,
OK, so all of the current merge requests for xsane have been dealt with. I
will work through the issues list and see if I can get a good number of
them sorted out.
If anyone has any burning issues that they would like added, then the next
few days would be a good time, if you want them sorted out before the next
release. I have had an opportunity for an activity spurt so I'm trying to
ride that wave.

Most notably, we have:

- GIMP 3 plugin support.
- Histogram correction, that *had* been fixed but messed up again during
the port.
- General testing of functionality.

If anyone fancies checking out the head of master, then please feel free to
let me know whet you think and what you find. I will be popping things in
there as I go along so the situation is going to evolve.

The GTK3 branch build is now functional. It is not totally complete (in
particular, not all the doc is installed) but is now makes a "working"
xsane, if you ignore the missing graphics. :O That branch has now been
merged to master and I will continue to work on branches off of that. The
current build situation probably has a lot of issues that different distros
are going to discover: I will have to deal with them as they come in.

Cheers,
Ralph
