I re-installed sane and xsane but my /etc/sane.d/ folder does not contain a dll.conf (nor anything else)

After my first try to get my Samsung SCX-3200 scanner to work I wanted to try a fresh start. So I removed all installed packages, the /etc/sane.d/ folder and the ~/.sane folder. Then I re-installed the sane/xsane packages as recommended here in STEP 1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/sane
The problem is that my /etc/sane.d/ folder is now completely empty apart from a folder dll.d which is also empty. What did I do wrong? Which package installs the dll.conf file (and the according vendor.conf files)?



Thanks for the help.

  • The package containing 'dll.conf' is libsane-common, as found here this should have been installed if you also installed sane-utils, as mentioned in 'step 1'
