File "patch_1080787.txt" (reverting SHA1 fec4800d7d) fixes the problem in my
system, using this procedure ...
sudo apt-get install libusb-dev
git clone git://git.debian.org/sane/sane-backends.git
cd sane-backends
./configure BACKENDS="avision"
patch -p1 < ~/Downloads/patch_1080787.txt
make
lib_dir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane
sudo cp backend/.libs/libsane-avision.so.1.0.25 $lib_dir
sudo ln -f -s libsane-avision.so.1.0.25 $lib_dir/libsane-avision.so.1
Set lib_dir to the system directory containing libsane-avision.so.1 (this will
be different in a 32-bit system). After doing this, test using ...
> scanimage -L
device `avision:libusb:005:057' is a Hewlett-Packard ScanJet 5370C flatbed
scanner
# and then ...
> simple-scan
Note that if you use a non-functional version of libsane-avision.so (eg
1.0.23),
you will need to disconnect and reconnect scanner's usb cable before a
functional version (1.0.22 or the patched 1.0.25) will work.
My system is ...
