Title:
  Sane genesys 1.0.29 and later drive HP Scanjet 3670 motor beyond
  limits

Status in sane-backends package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  When using scan-image with a HP ScanJet 3670 scanner under Xubuntu
  Jammy 22.04 at 300 dpi or more, the scanner motor is incorrectly
  driven by the driver:

  - when scanning an A4 page, the driver attempts to drive motor out of
  limits at the bottom of the page, resulting in a grinding sound.

  - the resulting image misses horizontal stripes.

  - the resulting image has an incorrect aspect ratio (it should be
  bigger in the vertical dimension).

  This doesn't happen under Xubuntu Xenial 16.04 (64 bit). This is a
  serious regression.

  [Test case]

  - install Xubuntu Jammy

  - install sane package

  - install flatbed scanner HP ScanJet 3670

  - run Document Scanner in "Image" mode with default parameters
  (resulting in a full-size, color, 300 dpi scan)

  - check scanner noise at bottom of document and resulting image

  [Analysis]

  Genesys driver under Jammy is libsane-genesys.so.1.1.1

  Genesys driver under Xenial is libsane-genesys.so.1.0.25

  This library has been entirely changed between releases 1.0.28 (which
  is written in C) and 1.0.29 (which has been relocated in its own
  subdir and is written in C++).

  When libsane-genesys.so.1.0.25 is copied to Jammy environment and
  symlink libsane-genesys.so.1 is adjusted to make it point at this
  file, the problem disappears entirely, the scanner works as expected
  and the resulting image is fine.

  When libsane-genesys.so.1.0.29 is copied to Jammy environment and
  symlink libsane-genesys.so.1 is adjusted to make it point at this
  file, the problem appears again.

  Please note that other files haven't been modified and belong to
  Jammy's version 1.1.1. Therefore, it is likely that something has been
  broken between versions 1.0.28 and 1.0.29 of libsane-genesys.so, when
  converting its sources from C to C++.

  [Details]

  OS version: Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS

  Packages versions: libsane1 1.1.1-5

  Log file attached for Jammy case (will attach Xenial case in a later
  step if possible).
