Skanpage crashing (again)

flint · June 17, 2026, 9:11am

Hey,
skanpage in Tumbleweed is crashing (again). In Leap 16 it’s working.

Output in Tumbleweed is:

Blockquote
feuasrk@0:~> skanpage
KCrash: Application ‘skanpage’ crashing… crashRecursionCounter = 2
Segmentation fault (core dumped) skanpage
feuasrk@0:~>

Tumbleweed:

skanpage 26.04.2-1.1.
tesseract-ocr installed

I have seen the older forum post re. skanpage. The solution described was to install tesseract-ocr. In my case with this version this does not work anymore.

Any other ideas what I can do?
Thanks for your help!

Please do not use Blockquote (") for computer text. Use Preformatted text (</>) instead (and of course replace the words “Blockquote” or “Preformatted text” by your copied pasted text).

knurpht · June 17, 2026, 7:58pm

I installed an ran it, no crash, and I have tesseract-ocr + some language files for that. Please show your repos: zypper lr -d in pre-formatted text

How did you install skanpage?

from download.opensuse.org-oss
or
from flathub ?

knurpht · June 17, 2026, 11:08pm

From download.o.o/oss

flint · June 18, 2026, 10:31am

Thanks for the info.

Do you have also hplip (and all related hplip-x packages) installed?

knurpht · June 18, 2026, 6:06pm

No. In itself your repos look OK, but … I have no idea what is in that Local Repository, nor do I know whether some locked packages ae involved.

deano_ferrari · June 18, 2026, 7:27pm

Check that you’re not impacted as per this topic:

Bug report linked there as well.

flint · June 19, 2026, 2:54pm

Hi,
thanks for the info. Very kind.
Yes, I had quite some struggle to install hplip (inkl plugin), but in the end I figured it out and I would say hplip is ok and running (as far as I can say)…
My scanner (HP Scanjet Pro 2000 S2) is available in the HP Device Manager (hplip).

Status:

I just did a complete fresh installation of Tumbleweed (on test laptop).
All default, no changes. Everything is fine and running, then:

Install skanpage and hplip (without hp-lip-scan-utils)
run skanpage =>all ok. There is no scanner there yet, but it’s running
run hplip setup. Plugins added. Scanner recognized. =>all ok
run hplip =>all ok
run skanpage => crash

Any thoughts?
(can I really be the only one…)

deano_ferrari · June 19, 2026, 8:57pm

The next step is to determine whether the crash also occurs with scanimage -L or scanimage --test, and to try another scanning application perhaps.

Does the crash also occur when running scanimage -L or scanimage --test? In any case, examine the coredump from coredumpctl info after the scanning utility crashes, and post the output here. That should help identify the library that is causing the crash.

conram · June 19, 2026, 9:21pm

Skanpage is working here in tumbleweed using brother scanner.
Try another scanner application to see if it will work, if it still not working chances are
it is a hardware (scanner) problem.
You can try xsane or gscan2pdf.

Thanks for the instructions. So I start

(end of tests…). And all of this on a fresh installed & updated Tumbleweed.

As suspected, the coredump shows the segfault occurring inside libsane-hpgt2500.so.1, which is the SANE backend for HP G2500 scanners. This happens during backend/device discovery.

The same issue as described here…

Comment out the hpgt2500 line in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf…

sudo cp /etc/sane.d/dll.conf /etc/sane.d/dll.conf.bak
sudo sed -i '/^hpgt2500$/s/^/#/' /etc/sane.d/dll.conf

…and then test again eg run scanimage -L

Yes, oh yes! Ok, I apologize, the solution was right there, in the linked post, but I didn’t see it (in my excuse, it was at the very bottom of the post]…

It works. Thanks for your answers and help!

Thank you.

I hope it stays that way…
