I beg your pardon, your answer doesn't help me. Maybe it is because you
speak of a RPM file. I got the sources from "sane-0.74.tar.gz", compiled
them and made a "make install". So I have no dir /etc/sane.d but
/usr/local/etc/sane.d with 18 files in it, but none named sane.conf, only
saned.conf. With this way every backend is made.
I never used a RPM file. I compiled 0.73 and it worked fine
with a HP ScanJet 4p, but not with Astra, so I tried the next version.

Could you please give me a hint where this archive is to be found (an URL?)
I follow this mailing list for some time but cannot remember having seen
something like this. But maybe I dont't read it good enough.
Thank you very much.
