Hello everybody, I have developed this tool that uses scanadf: https://secure.powercraft.nl/svn/packages/trunk/deb/pct-scanner-scripts/pct-scanner-scripts-devel/
It is also waiting for sponsoring to be included into debian: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/pct-scanner-scripts The tool works fine run from the command line but when trying to integrate it with keyboard shortcuts i run into serious trouble. I spent a hole day trying to debug it without luck. The script called from scanadf closes unexpected when executing a command like c44 of convert, i first thought it was a bug in convert so i made this bug report, see the attachment for info: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=513493 But then after further testing I had exactly the same issue with c44 command. It only happens when my tool is not directly executed form a terminal. If i run this from a normal xterm of xfce4-terminal it goes wrong: screen -S scanner /usr/bin/pct-scanner-script --config color2 --clean or /usr/bin/xfce4-terminal --hold --execute /usr/bin/pct-scanner-script --config color2 So its not only with screen i get this issue.... Both above command result in an unexpected exit of the child script used by scanadf. I also simplified the script that is called form scanadf but it just dies unexpected when called: see: http://debian.pastebin.com/d5f169270 I am complete lost here, I have been pulling out my remaining hairs for this hole day :-( I can both duplicate this issue on two different machines one lenny and one sid. Please help, Best regards, Jelle de Jong
