Package: xsane Version: 0.999-12 Followup-For: Bug #867667 Hi
After some more research it seams this bug could be somehow DE related: I normaly work in a fluxbox environment. And so I did today when I hit this bug (not for the first time!). As I was in a hurry with some documents I had to scan, I installed an other scanning application (simple scan) which did the job. On the same HW and same installation I later switched to a different WM/DE: lxqt When I started xsane while running lxqt, the preview window opened for a fraction of a second, but closed instantly. I could reopen it and it worked as it should. Even after closing and reopening xsane, the preview window opened and stayed open from now on. It even worked after a reboot. And, to my surprise, it now works in fluxbox, too. As if there never was a bug. Bug closed? NO! This malfunction occurred over the last two years again and again 9 out of 10 times I wanted to use xsane. And it is not clear why it happens and when it will happen again. -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.18.2-4-siduction-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages xsane depends on: ii libc6 2.33-7 ii libgimp2.0 2.10.30-1+b1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.72.2-2 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.33-2 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:2.1.2-1 ii liblcms2-2 2.12~rc1-2 ii libpng16-16 1.6.37-5 ii libsane1 1.1.1-5 ii libtiff5 4.4.0-2 ii sensible-utils 0.0.17 ii xsane-common 0.999-12 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-4 Versions of packages xsane recommends: ii chromium [www-browser] 102.0.5005.61-1 ii cups-client 2.4.2-1 ii falkon [www-browser] 3.2.0+dfsg1-2 ii firefox [www-browser] 100.0.2-1 ii lynx [www-browser] 2.9.0dev.10-1 ii vivaldi-snapshot [www-browser] 5.3.2679.50-1 ii vivaldi-stable [www-browser] 5.3.2679.51-1 ii w3m [www-browser] 0.5.3+git20220429-1+b1 Versions of packages xsane suggests: ii cuneiform 1.1.0+dfsg-9 ii gimp 2.10.30-1+b1 ii gocr 0.52-3 ii gv 1:3.7.4-2+b1 pn hylafax-client | mgetty-fax <none> ii ocrad 0.28-2 -- no debconf information
