That package version is from an unsupported PPA such as https://launchpad.net/~rolfbensch/+archive/ubuntu/sane-git so this is not a bug in Ubuntu/Kubuntu, but is due to the use of git builds from a PPA that may not be compatible with the version dependencies of the official Digikam packages. Your downgrade was to the ubuntu archive version of libsane, which explains why that then works. ** Changed in: digikam (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1729859 Title: 17.10 upgrade Digikam 5.6 and Showfoto would not install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/digikam/+bug/1729859/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
