** 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.
+
