Package: libsane Version: 1.0.19-20 Severity: minor
I installed libsane (as a dependency of kooka) and then connected my USB scanner (a Mustek 1248UB). The device nodes in /dev/usbdev* were owned by root:root and hence the scanner was not accessible by me - "scanimage -L" showed the scanner as root but not as the normal user. I had to manually restart udev to get it to read the rules file; after that (and unplugging and replugging the scanner) the permissions were correct and everything was fine. libsane should do this for you when it is installed so installation is more transparent. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libsane depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii libavahi-client3 0.6.22-3 Avahi client library ii libavahi-common3 0.6.22-3 Avahi common library ii libc6 2.7-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libexif12 0.6.16-2.1 library to parse EXIF files ii libgphoto2-2 2.4.1-3 gphoto2 digital camera library ii libgphoto2-port0 2.4.1-3 gphoto2 digital camera port librar ii libieee1284-3 0.2.11-5 cross-platform library for paralle ii libjpeg62 6b-14 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libsane-extras 1.0.19.10 API library for scanners -- extra ii libtiff4 3.8.2-11 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-12 userspace USB programming library ii makedev 2.3.1-88 creates device files in /dev ii udev 0.125-6 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo Versions of packages libsane recommends: ii avahi-daemon 0.6.22-3 Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD daemon ii sane-utils 1.0.19-20 API library for scanners -- utilit Versions of packages libsane suggests: pn hplip <none> (no description available) pn hpoj <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
