I just tested this on current hardy, and I confirm that Ubuntu does not
create the scanner group any more, since we do not need it for libsane.
If hplip still needs it, it should be created there, but I think the
better solution would be to change hal to make those devices  accessible
to the current foreground user, similar to what we do with scanners,
cameras, removable drives, etc. now.
