This fork of libfprint is a proposal for the Chipsailing CS9711 fingerprint reader, tracked in this issue. This reader is commonly in accessible USB dongles as 2541:0236, and also the one included in the GPD Win Max 2 2023 as 2541:9711.
Note that enrollment count is 15 touches, so insist a bit.
Note also that this is based on an experimental image recognition from the sigfm proposal.
No garantees are made by this author as to the validity and security of this code, while this author is very happy with the result, it should not be used for anything serious without serious testing.

LibFPrint was originally developed as part of an academic project at the University Of Manchester.
It aimed to hide the differences between consumer fingerprint scanners and provide a single uniform API to application developers.
The ultimate goal of the FPrint project is to make fingerprint scanners widely and easily usable under common Linux environments.
Section 6 of the license states that for compiled works that use
this library, such works must include LibFPrint copyright notices
alongside the copyright notices for the other parts of the work.
LibFPrint includes code from NIST's NBIS software distribution.
We include Bozorth3 from the US Export Controlled distribution, which we have determined to be fine being shipped in an open source project.
