** Description changed: Impact ====== Some manufacturers and vendors distribute their own scanner drivers. Some of these drivers install to /usr/lib/sane/ instead of the multi-arch directory Ubuntu uses. Expected Behavior ================ sane-backends should support the non-multiarch directory too. Also, some Brother drivers use the /usr/lib64/sane/ directory (as used in Fedora and RHEL). It would be helpful if Ubuntu supported that directory too. Other Info ========== There is much more discussion about this issue at LP: #1728012 I split this bug off since this is about a single specific issue and that bug has become more of a support thread. The multiarch switch seemed to happen in 1.0.22-4 way back in 2011. - I don't know why there seem to be more reports now. Ubuntu's sane- - backends did switch to debhelper compat >= 9 after Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. + I don't know why there seem to be more reports now.
