Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce.
1. Connect the OBD2-USB cable to the computer, or pair the Bluetooth device, as 
the case.
2. Open ScanTool and select the serial port used by the OBD2 device

What occurs
ScanTool says the message "Interface was not found" and does not connect to the 
OBD2 device. In addition, after ScanTool tries to connect, it is not even 
possible to manually communicate with the device, e.g. using Screen utility or 
cat to /dev/ttyUSB*; It does not matter if ScanTool had been closed.

What was expected
ScanTool should communicate with the OBD2 device and should not mess up the 
communication with it.

If I use the original ScanTool 1.21 patched with 
"scantool_net121-linux-termios":

It works correctly, so the issue comes from the version included on the 
repositories.
