I got some suggestion here which was mailed to me in german. <br>
|
|
The idea is not bad, so I forward a translation :<br>

I know this isn't as trivial as it sounds, as right permissions are something<br>
|
|
one can argue about, but a comment about it should be emitted during the<br>
|
|
install process.<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Something like<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
if RW-others : "Please note that making scsi-genric devices world RW-able<br>
|
|
poses a security risk and is normally not a good idea."<br>
|
|
if RW-group : "please note that you need to be in group [group] to access<br>
|
|
the scanner. Either make sure all users are in that group<br>
|
|
or make the executables setgid to it."<br>
|
|
if RW-owner : "[as with group]. [if uid is root] Please note that SANE has <br>
|
|
not been designed to be run suid-root. Consider using a <br>
|
|
setgid setup ..."<br>
