xscanimage segmantation fault

Postby hviaene » Feb 17th, '21, 11:44

Mageia 7.1 x86-64 fully updated.
In the past I have used xscanimage every now and then, usually I prefer xsane. But no problems since my first Mageia 2.
Up to recently I had one scanner Epson 2400 Photo scanner aka GT9300. But my printer was gone south and I replaced it with an HP Envy 6022, which is an all-in-one.
xsane works perfectly with both when I select one or the other scanner when starting it. But xscanimage asks which one to use, and which of the two I take doesn't matter, xscanimage bumps out; segmentation fault - core dumped.
I did an strace on it, and at the end I see:
Code: Select all
sendto(141, "<14>Feb 17 09:58:11 xscanimage: "..., 97, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = 97
sendto(141, "<14>Feb 17 09:58:11 xscanimage: "..., 76, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = 76
sendto(141, "<14>Feb 17 09:58:11 xscanimage: "..., 85, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = 85
sendto(141, "<14>Feb 17 09:58:11 xscanimage: "..., 88, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = 88   - In fact a whole wagonload of those
futex(0x7f97efde6688, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 2147483647) = 0
futex(0x7f97efde6688, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 2147483647) = 0
access("/usr/share/fonts/TTF/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf", R_OK) = 0
--- SIGSEGV {si_signo=SIGSEGV, si_code=SEGV_MAPERR, si_addr=NULL} ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV (core dumped) +++

Long since i used xscanimage.
Tried it now and I confirm yes it segfaults: If i have no scanner it exits cleanly saying it did not find one, and if i have my scanner connected it segfaults.
xsane works as usual :)

I see there is a stalled bug

Is there a configuration file that can be reset?

That is only about scanning in 48bit color mode, this is not even similar to xscanimage segfaulting directly during startup.

@hviaene: Can you check what you have in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf - is there an entry "hpaio" (for an HP scanner, not sure what backend your Epson scanner uses) ?

There is an entry hpaio, and there are entries for epson as well. When epson is shown to be selected (applies also to xsane) it is shown as usbxxxxxxxx

Mine is an epson perfection 1660 photo, from last millenium.
Experiment:
If /etc/sane.d/dll.conf does not contain the line
epson2
then xscanimage replies i do not find the scanner.
If the line is there it segfaults.
My /etc/sane.d/dll.d folder is empty.

When I start the PC with the HP switched off, thus only the Epson scanner visible, xscanimage immediately bombs out.

Is it worthwhile logging a bug for this issue????
