added support for ADS-2000 scanner (thanks, Pat!)

Updated to 0.4.1_5, added libusb-compat to the dependencies. I don't use the USB port, so I can't evaluate if it is working there.

the 0.4.1-5 version of the driver is online (flagged out of date for this reason) @Harey: I updated the PKGBUILD, please check it out and update yours as well :-) http://slexy.org/view/s2d2xGdeZ0

I couldn't get this package and it is was because I was missing the libusb-compat package. It appears that this packages depends on libusbx as well as libusb-compat based on the output of ldd: $ ldd /lib/sane/libsane-brother4.so linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffffb5fe000) libpthread.so.0 => /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f7dba51c000) libnsl.so.1 => /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x00007f7dba304000) libusb-0.1.so.4 => /usr/lib/libusb-0.1.so.4 (0x00007f7dba0fe000) libm.so.6 => /usr/lib/libm.so.6 (0x00007f7db9dff000) libdl.so.2 => /usr/lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f7db9bfb000) libc.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f7db984e000) /usr/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f7dba876000) libusb-1.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/libusb-1.0.so.0 (0x00007f7db963a000)

Updated to 0.4.1_3

Harvey commented on 2012-08-02 09:21 (UTC)

Well, I'm not really sure why it is working now ;) I made symlinks with the full path, that's all... It works, that's enough.

You made it :) It works for me on x86_64. Added my Printer and everything is fine! brsanenetdevice4.cfg is like yours: Device, empty line, CR. Would you tell me the magic about the "/etc/opt.."-thing?

Harvey commented on 2012-08-01 08:58 (UTC)

I took your comment as an occasion to revise my PKGBUILD and - fun! Meanwhile I did a completely fresh system install and now it works with xsane after configuring it with brsanconfig4. Would you mind trying this one again? Especially have a look at /opt/brother/scanner/brscan4/brsanenetdevice4.cfg after using brsanconfig4. Mine looks like: DEVICE=Brother , "MFC-9465CDN" , 0x4f9:0x244 , IP-ADDRESS=192.168.1.10 Notice the empty line and the carriage return after it.

I think there is a bug in the brother-rpm. brsaneconfig4 searches in /etc/opt/brother/... which should be /opt/brother/... . This path seems to be hard coded in brsaneconfig4. I modified your PKGBUILD like that: [link]https://sandbox.zeller.ws/wolke/public.php?service=files&token=1c3abe61ff6b36b14d44cc7b251ea0c33d9fa834&file=/public/brscan4_0.4.1_1.tar.gz[/link] , installed it, put a symlink 'ln -s /opt/ /etc/opt' and after playing around with setupSaneScan4 -e/-i, adding my MFC-J825DW again with brsaneconfig4, removing ~/.sane --> xsane starts and i was able to scan. But it's so dirty that way, i'll install 0.3.0 again :-P
