Given that beta1 is in three days, I suppose this is a long shot, but: I'm attaching the commit and checking the 'patch' checkbox...
** Patch added: "Cherrypicked fix from upstream" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-backends/+bug/1219583/+attachment/3799374/+files/0001-Epson-Perfection-1650-doesn-t-support-the-FSG_STATUS.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to sane-backends in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1219583 Title: SANE does not work anymore with Epson Perfection 1650. Used to work perfectly. Status in “sane-backends” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: On my plain vanilla ubuntu 13.04 system, with an Epson Perfection 1650 scanner plugged in, clicking 'Scan' in xsane, or running scanimage, yielded a short scan run and the message '[epson2] e2_ext_read: cancel request received' on stderr. This turns out to be caused by the commit commit 63a8dd4ebc9535b23d7a922cb0e7a9a682edd955 Author: Alessandro Zummo <a.zu...@towertech.it> Date: Sat Jan 9 23:21:50 2010 +0100 epson2: improved error detection as guessed by a comment in the related Debian bug report http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=597922#127 which also had a spot-on suggestion for how to fix it. I've attached the draft patch to http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=597922#215 There is also an upstream bug report, https://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?group_id=30186&atid=410366&func=detail&aid=312793 but I have not been able to comment there (alioth's login system defeated me). That upstream bug report also has a simple workaround (edit /etc/sane.d/dll.conf to uncomment epson and comment epson2), but a real fix would be nice. So, assuming no upstream release before 13.10, how about adding my patch? I'd be happy to submit it in a more ubuntu-friendly form.
