** Changed in: sane-backends (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Expired -- 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/1576012 Title: Xsane cannot find Brother MF-5890CN scanner configured using brsaneconfig3 Status in sane-backends package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: When multifunction device Brother MF-5890CN was configured on Ubntu 16.04 using instructions provided by Brother xsane/sane-fine- scanner/scanimage -L are unable to detect the device. WORKAROUND: Execute at a terminal: sudo mkdir /usr/lib/sane sudo ln -sf /usr/lib64/libbrscandec3.so* /usr/lib sudo ln -sf /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-brother3.so* /usr/lib/sane The critical fix to make this work is described here https://alephnull.uk/content/ubuntu-brother-printer-scanner-network-setup Then (critical bit) create these links - for some reason the 32 bit and 64 bit compatibility scripts have fallen down here (probably due to the non-standard nature of the Brother deb packages).
