I have been using (x)sane with my 17.02 without a problem.
After upgrade to 17.10:
 - my Xerox WorkCentre 3525 doesn't get detected (editing 
/etc/sane.d/xerox_mfp.conf helps though).
 - the XSane GUI closes after preview or scan with the following message "Not a 
JPEG file: starts with 0x00 0x00"
If this can't be fixed, a roll-back to 1.0.25 should probably be considered?

Title:
  the change from libsane to libsane1 broke many (all?) 3rd party plug-
  ins for sane

Status in sane-backends package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in sane-backends package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I don't know if that can be prevented in the long run. But both brscan
  (for my brother scanner) and iscan (for my epson scanners) have been
  broken by the change from libsane to libsane1. For iscan I have
  unpackaged the debian package, changed the dependency it contains from
  libsane to libsane1 and installed the changed package. But even then
  my epson scanners no more work leaving me without any scanner =>
  Reporting a bug.
