The problem is not limited to multifunction devices. My HP5590
scanjet scanner was not recognised by scanimage though
sane-find-scanner found it. No problem with my Ubuntu 10.04
partition. I believe their /lib/udev/rules.d/70-acl.rules covers
it with:
"... # USB scanners
ENV{libsane_matched}=="yes", ENV{ACL_MANAGE}="1"
..."
My problem was fixed with installing libsane version
1.0.22~git1.0.21-157-g126c70d-1 from experimental which has in
/lib/udev/rules.d/60-libsane.rules :
"...
ENV{libsane_matched}=="yes", RUN+="/usr/bin/setfacl -m g:scanner:rw
$env{DEVNAME}"
..."
This really was a show stopper for me and caused much blood
on the floor. As far as I am concerned this bug should
be upgraded to grave, or, better. fixed.
