Bug#725338: libsane: new upstream release (1.0.24) available

[Mark Buda <hermit@acm.org>]

Package: libsane
Version: 1.0.23-3
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream

Since the package appears to be orphaned and I want my fancy new Canon multifunction printer scanning over the network, I'll get the new release working and see about getting it uploaded if no one else is doing it. Maybe even adopt it. I know a thing or two about scanners.

I've wanted to contribute to Debian for years, but just about every time I wanted something done, somebody else had already done it.
