That would fix the build, yes.
I still think we should retire sane-frontends - "released 14 years ago"
on https://gitlab.com/sane-project/frontends/-/releases really looks
like upstream has abandoned that part.

> Not sure what you mean by racket though?  There are no new warnings

Right, my diff was thrown off by something.
Again, the amount of "implicit declaration" and format string warnings
does not instill confidence. This piece will break rather sooner than
later, and we'll be lucky if it breaks in an obvious way. gscan2pdf
works just fine with p5-Image-Sane (at least for my scanner), so
that dependency could likely go away.

Do you want to patch sane-frontends (and deprecate it, at your
discretion)? I'll throw a few patches in the direction of danilo@
for gscan2pdf and some other stuff which came up with that.

Regards,
Christoph
