Never used ethernet accessible scanners, but a good practice on using sane from sources is to be sure you don't have the previous versions' 'leftovers' (configs, `rules.d` files, ...) in your installation.

I'd say your log hints at saned already being run on your system with some already existing (or default) configs.

What does `netstat -t -na` say?

Back on topic, it seems I cannot run saned as a background daemon,
but I can't find where its disabled.  I found a debug log that
apparently is being generated by saned, and here are the results of
the last attempt to start it:
===========================
May  4 00:53:43 coyote saned[21234]: saned (AF-indep+IPv6) from
sane-backends 1.0.22 starting up May  4 00:53:43 coyote
saned[21234]: do_bindings: [1] bind failed: Address already in use
May  4 00:53:43 coyote saned[21234]: do_bindings: [0] bind failed:
Address already in use May  4 00:53:43 coyote saned[21234]:
do_bindings: couldn't bind an address. Exiting. May  4 00:53:43
coyote saned[21234]: FATAL ERROR; bailing out, waiting for
children... May  4 00:53:43 coyote saned[21234]: bail_out: all
children exited ============================
So thats a very non-informative log. :(  How do I make it tell me
what addresses fail?
