Comment 6 for bug 605844

>"So the application does not crash but only display that message?"
Yes.

The message shows up in every location like Deskop, home, Images - location doesn't matter - but only after "scan + crop + rotate" procedure. Before "crop + rotate" file can be saved, after crop -> file can be saved.
Only when You scan, crop and rotate, file->save - choose location ie: /home -> save -> and shows this message:
"Failed to save file\n couldn't allocate memory for loading JPEG file".

Actually, I can't reproduce bug on Ubuntu, becouse I use Debian (squeeze) and simple-scan 2.31.1 works perfectly.

This is an old bug in Ubuntu 10.04, (10.10?) - imho lets forget about it.
