In general for a possible

you may have a look at the section

Had "one last look" at the problem, which did it. :)
The problem was two-part, and both parts were
related to the SANE sources/installation.
1) Wrong group ("lp") on scanner device node in
/dev/bus/usb/... was being set by udev
libsane.rules installed in /lib/udev/rules.d
(one of the 2013
Well, the USB IDs are there in plustek.c :),
and, in fact, I've successfully used this same
box+scanner back in 2010 (such hardware lifespan

https://github.com/luizluca/openwrt-packages/tree/sane/utils/sane-backends/patches
I'll try to explain their motivations:
