Fedora 3: 2005-538 Moderate: SANE USB Scanner Permissions Fix

Scanner Access Now Easy (SANE) is a universal scanner interface. The

SANE application programming interface (API) provides standardized

access to any raster image scanner hardware (flatbed scanner,

hand-held scanner, video and still cameras, frame-grabbers, etc.). If

they're using SANE, developers can write image-processing applications

without having to think about the peculiarities of individual devices.

SANE also makes it possible to write a device driver once, which can

then be used by any SANE-compliant application. SANE currently

includes drivers for some Epson SCSI scanners, HP ScanJet SCSI

scanners, Microtek SCSI scanners, Mustek SCSI flatbed scanners, PINT

devices, most UMAX SCSI scanners, Connectix QuickCam, and other SANE

devices via network. Note that this package does not enable network

scanning by default. If you wish to enable network scanning, read the

saned(1) manpage. If you'd like to develop SANE modules, you should

also install the sane-backends-devel package.

This is version 1.0.15 of the sane-backends scanner drivers. This package

also resolves the issues concerning device permissions for USB

scanners which are always connected.
