Public bug reported:
On my plain vanilla ubuntu 13.04 system, with an Epson Perfection 1650 scanner
plugged in,
clicking 'Scan' in xsane, or running scanimage, yielded a short scan run and
the message
'[epson2] e2_ext_read: cancel request received' on stderr.
This turns out to be caused by the commit
commit 63a8dd4ebc9535b23d7a922cb0e7a9a682edd955

epson2: improved error detection
as guessed by a comment in the related Debian bug report
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=597922#127
which also had a spot-on suggestion for how to fix it.
I've attached the draft patch to
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=597922#215
There is also an upstream bug report,
https://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?group_id=30186&atid=410366&func=detail&aid=312793
but I have not been able to comment there (alioth's login system defeated me).
That upstream bug report also has a simple workaround (edit
/etc/sane.d/dll.conf to
uncomment epson and comment epson2), but a real fix would be nice.
So, assuming no upstream release before 13.10, how about adding my patch?
I'd be happy to submit it in a more ubuntu-friendly form.
