Bug Description

Hello,

I forward this bug from Debian[1]:

[quote]
Package: simple-scan
Version: 3.23.2-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

simple-scan produces detailed logs in
~/.cache/simple-scan/simple-scan.log. While this can be useful when
debugging issues, it also means that simple-scan uses up more and more
disk space (10GiB on my system) in a location which isn’t particularly
discoverable...

There’s probably a better way to fix this than just in simple-scan,
but I thought it worth filing a bug anyway.

(I skipped attaching the debug log, for obvious reasons.)

Regards,

Stephen
