** Description changed: + * Impact + + The plustek driver isn't working in 20.10 + + * Test case + + Try doing a copy of a document on a plustek based device + + * Regression potential + + The locking option was disabled until 20.10, the locking code relies on + a lock directory to exist in /var/lock but that location is not + persitant which means the locking can't work. Debian has turned the + option off again, we are going the same in the SRU because it's safer + than trying to fix an option that never got properly tested. There is + special verification to do, just check that plustek and other devices + are working correctly. + + --------------------- + There are multiple reports now of failing plustek backend in libsane 1.0.31-2 as shipped in Ubuntu 20.10 and Debian dev My report: https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/-/issues/363 Another report: https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/-/issues/360 Debian bug report: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=971584
