I try to make my Brother DCP7055 scanner working. One of the steps is to add the Product/Vendor ID to libsane.rules.

This file is missing completely on my fresh Ubuntu-Studio 14.4 installation. I have apt-get_installed all sane and lib-sane packages which came into my mind.

Thanks for advise Frank

When I upgraded from 14.04LTS to 16.04LTS my scanner did not work. The upgrade deleted file 40-libsane.rules and replaced it with 60-libsane.rules without offering to keep/rename the old file. The new 60-libsane.rules did not contain my earlier edits to 40-libsane.rules. Redoing the old edits to the new 60-libsane file solved my scanner problem.
