Package: libsane-extras
Version: 1.0.19.11
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


I had sane workin under sarge with epkowa driver and a propietary part provided
by epson (iscan_2.10.0-2_i386.deb iscan-plugin-cx4400_2.0.0-1_i386.deb
alienated from rpm provided by epson, milfunction CX-5600)
It runs in a 686 machine, mostly used as a chroot, but the problem has nothing
to do with the chroot.
The packages conflict with libsane-extras, which is not need, so it was not
installed in sarge.

When upgradings to lenny  aptitude upgrades sane and calls libsane-extras
(in depends) which conflicts with installed iscan_2.10.0-2_i386.deb
over /usr/share/man/man5/sane-epkowa.5.gz

libsane-extras is not configured and so goes sane ....

removing iscan_2.10.0-2_i386.deb is not a solution since it allows instalation
of sane but with the conflicting (at a deeper level) with iscan.

Fix? remove the dependence of libsane with libsane-extras or put epkowa in
a different package.

My fix now is: remove sane, libsane, libsane-extras which drags kde!!!
download sane from repository, compile, install, install iscan packages
and use the scanner booting 686 linux or amd64 and a chroot.
