No, you're not wrong, there are indeed conflicts. But I'm confused:

In your original mail, you wrote that you have a RHL 7.3 system with
the following sane versions installed:

sane-backends-1.0.7-6
sane-frontends-1.0.7-2
xsane-0.84-2
sane-backends-devel-1.0.7-6

The conflicts you are listing now, however, point to a conflict with
"sane-1.0.3" - which shouldn't be installed on a RHL 7.3 system (RH7.3
comes with sane-....-1.0.7) at all, unless you yourself already installed
it. Is this the same system as you described in your original mail?
If so, where does the sane-1.0.3 come from?

Without knowing this, it is not possible to advise you correctly as to
how to proceed further!

Cheerio,

Thomas
