  Hi Jonathan,

  it looks like you try to install a sane version where xscanimage is compiled with
  an other gimp version than you have installed.

  Try to find out what gimp version in needed (don`t ask me how, I don`t know the debian
  package manager) and install that gimp version

  Bye
  Oliver
