Description of Problem: RedHat's configuration puts usb devices in the /dev/usb directory. The correct path therefore for the first usb scanner is /dev/usb/scanner0. Several sane backend files have paths such as /dev/usbscanner0 or similar. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sane-backends-1.0.7-6 I suppose this isn't such a big deal as the need to edit backend files, at least for now, appears inevitable anyway.
Okay, I'll bite. This is the third bug I've reported that blocks bug 61901, but I don't have access to that bug. I'm wondering what it is.
Fixed in sane-backends-1.0.8-4. Thanks for reporting it.
I've confirmed that this fix is present in limbo. Someone should probably close this bug. Thanks.
