Dear Maintainer,

since a few weeks or months, I no longer see the entry for using xsane to
create a new image in gimp.
I can still scan invoking xsane manually, saving the result, and opening it in
gimp. But apparently the xsane gimp plugin no longer works.

Whe I delete .config/GIMP, on the next start of "LANG=C gimp" for multiple
seconds the line I see "Querying new plugins" and "xsane" in the gimp startup
window, but there menu entry for gimp still doesn't show up later. When doing
that with gimp --verbose, I see "Querying plug-in: '/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-
ins/xsane/xsane'" in teh output, but no other references to sane, and no
indication of anything going wrong.

Hello,

thanks for the bug report. Since there are already several reports on
the error, I have merged them.
