  Yes the files are copied into it here as well, but scanimage or
  xsane then try to access the wrong dir.
  I do not have backend.conf, where does it come from, do I have to
  create it myself?

  No, I do not have any *SANE_* variables set, and I tried make
  distclean already yesterday.

  For now I take Olivers "hack", and link everything from /etc/sane.d/
  to /etc/sane.d/sane.d/, that seems to work. But if someone has
  another bright idea, I am willing to try...
