Please forgive the very long post, but I wanted to get some specifics
recommended actions to restore access to my Canon LIDE20 scanner, which
has been inaccessible roughly since the upgrade to sane-backends-1.0.17.
My scanner problems seemed to closely match reports those of users with
permissions problems on their USB device nodes, but upon investigation, I
see that I probably suffer from missing udev rule files instead or in
addition.
The previous post said 'use sane to generate udev rules', but does not say
how. Can you elaborate? I'd like to add that operation to a postinstall
step on the distro's sane-backends packaging.
So, I'll lay out the files and facts, and ask the group to suggest
specific ways I can fix this. The detail may help other users diagnose
their issues.
System is Gentoo Linux ~x86, with various overlays. Yeah, I have lots of
unstable software packages installed ;)
Thanks for any suggestions.
There is no (obvious) udev rule file installed with the sane-backends, and
if it is one of these files, it doesn't get copied to /etc/udev/rules.d

My system has udev-090 installed, and the kernel is built (via
'genkernel') with udev-079. Apparently coldplug is deprecated with newer
udev versions:
# emerge hotplug coldplug -pv
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
[blocks B ] >=sys-fs/udev-089 (is blocking
sys-apps/coldplug-20040920-r1)
[ebuild R ] sys-apps/hotplug-20040923-r2 0 kB
[ebuild N ] sys-apps/coldplug-20040920-r1 0 kB
There are no sane-specific udev rules files that I can see:

In Gimp-2.3.8, I use the Acquire: XSane: Device Dialog command, which had
been working flawlessly. Now the result is:
No devices available: [Help] [Close]
Finally, I tried xscanimage, which I presume would have worked the same as
the GUI, if a scanner were available.
$ xscanimage
[xscanimage] No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something
different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and
detected by sane-find-scanner (if appropriate). Please read
the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ,
manpages).
