Gord&gt; Hi, all! When I run xscanimage from the sane-0.62<br>
Gord&gt; distribution under gimp-0.99.10, I can crash the gimp simply<br>
Gord&gt; by selecting file|exit from the xscanimage window.<br>
<p>
Gord&gt; This is because xscanimage exits without calling `gimp_quit',<br>
Gord&gt; so GIMP barfs with:<br>
<p>
Gord&gt; wire_read: unexpected EOF gimp fatal error: sigsegv caught<br>
Gord&gt; [n]othing, [e]xit, [s]tack trace, [a]ttach to process:<br>
<p>
Gord&gt; The attached patch fixes the problem, at least on SANE's end.<br>
Gord&gt; Arguably, GIMP should be more robust against EOF conditions,<br>
Gord&gt; but I don't feel like messing with the GIMP sources right now,<br>
Gord&gt; and this patch is definitely correct. ;)<br>
<p>
Ah, yes, I noticed that too and I think the fix was in the pre0.63<br>
patch already (along with a couple of other minor fixes). I plan on<br>
making an updated pre0.63 patch soon that contains Oliver's UMAX<br>
changes so if you haven't gotten the pre0.63 patch yet, you may just<br>
want to wait for the forthcoming one.<br>
