I just upgraded to Xenial and the situation is the same. However I
wanted to note that the script in comment #27 didn't work for me.
Here's a procedure to get the brscan2 package work in Ubuntu Trusty or
Xenial:
1) Install the latest brscan2 package (I have brscan2-0.2.5-1.amd64.deb
)
2) Copy the drivers from /usr/lib64 to the correct directory:
$ cd /usr/lib64
$ sudo cp -pr lib* sane /usr/lib
3) Edit the file /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules
ADD the following 2 lines
# Brother DCP-7020
ATTRS{idVendor}=="04f9", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0183", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"
AFTER this line
LABEL="libsane_usb_rules_begin"
4) Tell udev to reload the updated rule file
$ sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
