Hi,

I've seen that some people need to purge |ippusbxd| before they can use their scanner with escl backend (e.g. https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/-/issues/256#note_307051019).

Is this a fix rule? Then I'd like to add a break dependency to |ippusbxd| in my Ubuntu ppa.

ippusbxd has inherent problems that cannot be easily fixed:

https://github.com/OpenPrinting/ippusbxd/issues/15
https://github.com/OpenPrinting/ippusbxd/issues/14

ippusbxd may occasionally work with escl backend or not, but in any case it will not work stable.

There is a replacement free of these problems:

https://github.com/OpenPrinting/ipp-usb

Note, this software is only needed to connect IPP-over-USB enabled device using USB. It is not needed if network connection is in use.
