does this ever occur in trusty or later? ** Changed in: sane-backends (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete
** Changed in: sane-backends (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Rolf Leggewie (r0lf) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to sane-backends in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773617 Title: Saned group is missing permissions to access scanners via udev-acl Status in sane-backends package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The udev rules for scanners now allow everyone to scan by using acl control, the problem with this control is that it doesn't allow the saned user/group to access the scanner. This prevents scanners from being scared over the network, unless they're hp scanners. There are some workarounds for instance: http://blog.crox.net/archives/64-Scanner-permissions-in-Ubuntu-Karmic- udev-libusb-saned-problem-with-udev-acl.html Which when tested didn't work for Maverick. But I think this should be fixed in the saned rules/acl rules somehow to guarantee the saned user/group can access scanners.
