Public bug reported:

Hardy:

Attempting to register a finger print with this tool fails with the
following error:

Warning: usb_bulk_read expected to read 0x40 (read 0x20 bytes)

The number of bytes read changes every run.

After the error is displayed the program seems to do nothing and has to
be killed with a Ctrl-C.

This is on a Dell XPS M1330.
The biometric device is:

ID 0483:2016 SGS Thomson Microelectronics Fingerprint Reader

Here is a log of a registration session:
