Bug#520225: libsane and Brother MFC-215C
Hi, Sorry I did not your receive your email response for some reason. Today I figured I'd check the status of this. 1. The backend is external which I downloaded and installed from Brothers website. http://www.sane-project.org/lists/sane-backends-external.html#S-BROTHER This makes it clear to me since the site goes on to say... As this software contains non-free parts, it can't be included into SANE... 2. Yes I optionally wipe out the file.

Then the rule for your scanner does not belong to the rules file shipped by libsane. You'll have to take care of it on your own, since libsane (and other packages providing backends) only cares about the hardware it supports.

Bug#520225: libsane and Brother MFC-215C
Package: libsane
Version: 1.0.19-26
Severity: important
Tags: patch
The multi-function Brother MFC-215C works well with Debian
Etch/Lenny/Squeeze.
However I manually have to add the following line to z60_libsane.rules
to get the scanner working:
#Brother MFC215C
SYSFS{idVendor}==04f9,SYSFS{idProduct}==0193,MODE=666,GROUP=scanner
I have tried to email this to the Sane mailing list but no luck.
Everytime z60_libsane.rules gets updated it wipes out my settings (after
confirming though).
Can you please add my scanner to the rules file.

Everytime z60_libsane.rules gets updated it wipes out my settings (after confirming though). Let's rephrase that: every time there's a change to the udev rules file /you/ wipe out your modifications. Can you please add my scanner to the rules file. If it's supported by a backend included in libsane, sure. If not, it doesn't belong to the rules shipped with libsane.
