+action(s) such as saving, copying, or e-mailing the image.
+
+Actions can be fully customised through scripts, based on any combination of
+switch or knob settings.  Events are also signaled over D-Bus and scans can
+even be triggered over D-Bus from foreign applications.
+
+Scanbd talks to scanners through the @acronym{SANE, Scanner Access Now Easy}
+back-end library.  This means that it supports almost all existing scanners,
+provided the driver also exposes the buttons.")

I added zlib as an input (it wouldn't build otherwise), fixed a typo,
and pushed as c40516a567.

Thanks!

Closing.
