I was getting an error when checking my journalctl using Gnome 3.16.3 and Colord, complaining that colord was missing libsane.so.1, to which installing the 'sane' package has rectified. I have noticed however that the sane package is only listed as a dependency at build time.

I am not sure what this error was leading to, nor do I really know what sane does, but perhaps it should be a runtime dependency as well as it was throwing errors.

The error was:
/usr/lib/colord/colord-sane: error while loading shared libraries: libsane.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This task depends upon

errors in the log don't mean much as long as everything keeps working. sane is already an optional dependency.
