The proposed uploads should fix the issue. They are available in this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/ubuntu/sane-backends [Test case] 1. Install the libsane (libsane1 in bionic), libsane-common and sane-utils packages from {bionic,disco]-proposed. 2. Use an affected device to scan, and find that the issue is no longer present. [Regression risk] Upstream commit, focused bug fix => low regression risk [Original description] On Windows it works but on my Ubuntu 17.10, 18.04 and 18.10 I see a black band on scanned image. The scanner is Canon CanoScan LIDE100. Libsane version is 1.0.27-1~experimental2ubuntu1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/sane-backends/+bug/1731459/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
