>Description:


gscan2pdf version 0.9.2 - after selecting "file, scan" the "scan document window" opens. Then gscan2pdf starts using 100% cpu while trying to get device dependent options, and it never completes (it hangs there). I can close that window, but the cpu usage doesn't go down until I quit gscan2pdf.

If I portdowngrade to gscan2pdf version 0.9,1 it works.


>How-To-Repeat:


install / portupgrade to version 0.9.2 of gscan2pdf


>Fix:


none known at the moment.
Workaround: portdowngrade to gscan2pdf 0.9.1
