Bug Description

libsane does not install. Error is:

Setting up libsane (1.0.17-1ubuntu2) ...
rmdir: /etc/hotplug/usb: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing libsane (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

And I tried deinstalling it. Does not change anything
