Package: xsane Version: 0.998-6+b1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, Xsane fails to find the scanner. sane-find-scanner finds it at /dev/bus/usb/008/003 scanimage -l or scanimage -L fails to find it. I have installed the iscan package from Epson, as several reports indicates this includes a driver/wrapper that may help, but iscan is "unable to send comannd". /dev/bus/usb/008/003 is crw-rw-r--+ 1 root root - this could be a problem for regular users, but root is also unable to find the scanner with the same results as above. The scanner was working with current Jessie 32b upgraded through several versions of Debian, and I believe I may have solved a similar problem in the past, but I can not find my notes on that.
