I uploaded sane-backends 1.0.24-1.1 to Debian unstable yesterday which contains the commit, I have therefore closed the bug on Debian.
Please wait until Ubuntu has imported 1.0.24-1.1 from Debian or you can ask me for a build for your specific version of Ubuntu for tesing. I would like to close this bug report as soon as possible. Adrian ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #597922 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=597922 ** Also affects: sane-backends (Debian) via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=597922 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- 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 Status in “sane-backends” package in Debian: Unknown 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 <[email protected]> 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.
