Package: sane
Version: 1.0.14-9
Severity: normal
Hi,
When I issue this command:
$ scanimage -d plustek:libusb:002:002 --resolution 200 -x 210 -y
297 --contrast 20%
I receive this error message:
scanimage: output is not a file, exiting
scanimage complains that the output is not a file. Scanimage is supposed
to dump the output to stdout. It should not have any knowledge about
output files.
The scanner is a Canoscan LIDE 25. Detection is no problem, backend works,
XSane works without any problem, can perform previews, scans, write to
files, etc.
Kind regards
Hans Linkels

This is the expected behaviour, introduced in 1.0.21. There is no point
in dumping the PNM data to stdout if stdout is a tty. It usually means
the user forgot to redirect the output, hence the new behaviour.
