Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
After an upgrade to Debian Stretch, the scanner would not work.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I connected the scanner's USB cable to my laptop which is still running
Debian Jessie. The scanner worked.
I made sure that the configuration files in /etc/sane.d were correct,
and that the firmware file was properly installed in
/usr/share/sane/snapscan.
I found bug # 856811 which seemed virtually identical to my bug. I ran
ln -s /usr/lib64/sane /usr/lib
as suggested in the bug conversation, and tested again. No joy.
* What was the outcome of this action?
root@hen3ry:/home/mike# lsusb
:
<other stuff>
:
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 06bd:2061 AGFA-Gevaert NV SnapScan 1212U (?)
:
root@hen3ry:/home/mike# scanimage -L
device `snapscan:libusb:002:004' is a AGFA SNAPSCAN flatbed scanner
root@hen3ry:/home/mike# scanimage --format=tiff >/root/image.tiff
scanimage: no SANE devices found
* What outcome did you expect instead?
When "lsusb" and "scanimage -L" both worked, I expected a scan to work.
It failed with both "scanimage --format=tiff >/root/image.tiff" and
gscan2pdf.
