|
||
The current RPM split is 3way.<br>
|
||
- SANE itself (all backends) about 2 MB<br>
|
||
- SANE clients (scanimage/xscanimage/xcam) about 250 kB<br>
|
||
- SANE development (the libraries) about 3.7 MB<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Most installations wil require only the first two and you will end up with<br>
|
||
less then 2.5 MB<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Splitting up the lot for all the backends will result in 21 more packages.<br>
|
||
Which will result in a lot of confusement for those that want to download<br>
|
||
the files but don't know which one to take.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
There is maybe 1.5 MB diskspace to win but the cost of utterly confused<br>
|
||
people is not worth that gain. I mean: Scanning a normal photo will result<br>
|
||
in about 5 to 10MB of data.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
All in all: no further splitting up will be done.<br>
|
||
