I also created the AUR scangearmp2-sane-git which uses the github repository below. It includes a slightly upgraded GUI for scangearmp2, but more importantly provides a sane driver.

@jose1711 Thanks, I have updated the desktop file.

Could you please drop the .png extension from .desktop file?

Icon=scanner.png
Desktop file '/usr/share/applications/scangearmp2.desktop' should not include extension in Icon key: 'scanner.png'

Thanks!

@Mysti Updated to a later version, and added a workaround. I would still advice to use the scangearmp2-sane-git package as it is better maintained.

@Mysti I have tried updating to 4.71-1, but that doesn't seem to solve the issue. Have you tried the scangearmp2-sane-git instead?
