Thanks for the reply Kevin.  I see that I could fudge and probably get
it to work with the /etc/udev/rules.d/60-libsane.rules from F8, but
would rather use the real fix.

I have no idea how to get the rpm from koji.  I looked at the koji
site and fedora wiki page and am still clueless.  What do I need to do
to obtain the package?

Thanks.

Gerry
