Hi,
this normally happens when you have more than one sane-backend version
installed.
find / -name "*sane*"
may help to find out where sane versions are installed.
When you installed a sane-backends version as rpm before you
installed one from source you should uninstall the rpm version
with your rpm manager.
Bye
Oliver
