Description:
I have a problem with Libreoffice, through the version that came with my Peach
OSI TW 16.04(Xubuntu) 64 bit 6.2.2.8 to the snap version I just installed today
7.0.4.2. other people on the net have reported same problem with LibreOffice in
Linux over several years/versions.

I finally today got SANE(xsane) to see my scanner, Cannon PIXMA MG3070S, which
previously only worked with the Scangear MP app supplied by Cannon, now it
works with all apps using SANE - except for Libreoffice.

In Libreoffice click Insert - media - scan - select source

Nothing happens. No Errors or any popup.

Could you look into this, thank you in advance.
