  Problem: ADF-Duplex does not work-
  Scanning with --source flatbed or --source ADF works just fine.
  But when trying ADF Duplex it doesn work at all.
- No problems with the scanner in other programms (for example gscan2pdf) - and 
as --search recognizes ADF Duplex it seems to be available.
+ as --search recognizes ADF Duplex it seems to be available.
  
  For example:
  pct-scanner-script --color --source ADF Duplex --resolution 300 --device 
hp5590:libusb:002:004  --outdir /home/kaktux
  resolves in the message:
  "outdir not set, try adding --outdir /home/kaktux, closing now"
  while exactly the same example with ADF only:
  pct-scanner-script --color --source ADF --resolution 300 --device 
hp5590:libusb:002:004  --outdir /home/kaktux
  works just fine.
  
  Another - now solved poblem with the package was: lineart does not work-
  It gabe the error message:
  "scanadf: unrecognized option '--compression'"
  
  could be solved by deleting  "--compression None" in /usr/bin/pct-
  scanner-script
