This is wrong... The version that's in 1.0.14 should report this string:

SANE Epson Backend v0.2.41 - 2004-02-01

Are you sure that you only have one version of Sane installed? I've 
never
release a version with the version number v1.5.0ek, I have no idea where
this is coming from... I don't have FC2, so I cannot verify this
behavior.

If the backend is really from 12/02, you will not be able to use it
with a libusb system (which is what every 2.6.x system uses).
