The next question would be if things would now work if libsane1 would contain a "provides libsane". Would it be possible for you to install esci-interpreter-gt-f720 ignoring the missing dependency?
I think the command that does do this would be: sudo dpkg -i --force-depends esci-interpreter-gt-f720 Thanks a lot in advance! Will try if the new sane-backends would make my brother scanner work again if the "provides libsane" were present in "libsane1" as soon as I get home. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1707352 Title: the change from libsane to libsane1 broke many (all?) 3rd party plug- ins for sane To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-backends/+bug/1707352/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
