Public bug reported: XSane now crashes every time I use it, giving a segfault. The crash happens at different times. Sometimes it crashes while displaying the 'Searching for devices' window, which just disappears. Sometimes it crashes with an error dialog reading:
Failed to open device 'hpaio:/usb/HP_Color_LasterJet_CM1312_MFP?serial=xxx': Error during device I/O. Sometimes XSane starts but segfaults during the scan: the scanner hardware operates correctly, but XSane crashes before it can accept any data returned from the scanner. The scanner is an HP 1312 MFP directly connected via a USB cable. The problem persists even if I remove ~/.sane/xsane XSane was working perfectly in Oneiric, with this scanner. The printer side of the CM1312 still works fine. GDB output gives (gdb) run Starting program: /usr/bin/xsane [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] Using host libthread_db library "/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".
