Package: xsane
Version: 0.999-5
Severity: normal

After upgrading to stretch the preview window is empty/unusable:
i.e. it seems bug 712281 should be reopened.

How to reproduce:

(no .sane/xsane yet)
start xsane
close the preview window
(at this point the preview window can still be reopened ok)
stop xsane
start xsane
open the preview

Result: an empty window, no buttons, and moving the mouse
generates strips of mostly black blobs on the top and left of
the window.

But -- quitting xsane now, and restarting it does result
in a working preview window again! So the problem seems to be
some missing initialization of the preview window when
starting without one.

As described in bug 712281,  rm -r ~/.sane/xsane also resolves
the problem, temporarily at least, but that is because
without .sane/xsane the default is to start _with_ the
preview window.
