Comment:
Replying to [comment:14 alexan...@…]:
> * There is a group ID conflict with sshd (reported as ticket #2796).
Fixed at revision 7708.
> * The udev rules use the old SYSFS syntax. sed 's/SYSFS/ATTRS/g' does
the conversion trick.
Fixed at revision 7709.
> * Make sure that non-scanner USB devices (e.g., hubs) in /dev/bus/usb
have 0664 permissions (i.e., are readable), because otherwise scanner
access will fail. The working configuration is the default in LFS-6.4, but
not in 6.3.
This ticket is only addressing 6.4, but I added an erratum to BLFS 6.3 on
the website.
> * The book says "Once the saned daemon has been configured, add any
desired users to the scanner group". However, if the scanner is not
supposed to be shared over the network, then the daemon is not supposed to
be used (and thus is not supposed to be configured), and the users should
still be added to the group. Even more, if both the daemon is used and the
user is added to the group, then the local USB scanner will be seen twice:
once directly and once as a network scanner connected to 127.0.0.1.
Moved the instruction to add users to the scanner group and deleted the
daemon reference.
Closing the ticket.
