Package: sane
Version: 1.0.14-9
Severity: important

Since upgrade from Wheezy to Jessie, on a certain desktop system
to which I had attached a scanner (Epson Perfection 1260), I am
no longer able to use the scanner. When I start `xsane`, it hangs
forever.  Gimp also doesn't start, it hangs forever at the "Querying
new Plug-ins / xsane" step.  If I do `scanimage -L` as root, the 
command hangs, and `Ctrl-C` does not kill it.

If I unplug the Epson scanner and plug in a Canon LiDE 200 scanner,
I get the `lsusb` output "Canon, Inc. CanoScan LiDE 200", but
xsane etc. exhibit the same behavior of hanging.

The following listing might be relevant...
