Rebuild sane-backends like this:

CFLAGS="-DNO_STRING_VERSION_MATCH" ./configure
make
make install

That's untested but I think it disables the version test.

See bug report:
https://alioth.debian.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=300542&group_id=30186&atid=410366

Thomas: As this issue pops up from time to time can't the version test
be disabled completely?

bye,
