The scripts which are executed while device insertion/removal and by pushing
buttons should be located in ${prefix}/etc/scanbd/scripts. We will fix the
makefiles... to correct this (in the next days).

I think these files should be in ${prefix}/etc/saned/. Where do you have this
information from?
> 3.) SCANBD_DEVICE could be /dev/scanner (if I have such a device?)
In most cases there is no such devicenode.
It could be something like plustek:libusb:001:003.
When you plug in your device it should be detected if there is a supported
driver configured. Look at the end of ${prefix}/etc/saned/scanbd.conf
> 4.) SCANBD_ACTION - I do not really understand what is about this.
This is a variable which represents the actual event (insert, remove, scan,
copy, ...) the definitions are in scanbd.conf.
It is possible to trigger different scripts based on these events (if you have
more then one detected button on your scanner).
You can launch scanbd in debug mode to see the values of SCANBD_DEVICE and
SCANBD_ACTION: ${prefix}/sbin/scanbd -d7 -f -c ${prefix}/etc/scanbd/scanbd.conf
.
