Do you have libsane-extras installed ? If yes, remove it and try
again. With the current libsane in testing, the backends from
libsane-extras are tried first, and there's the epkowa backend in
there ...

A new libsane revision will enter testing in a few days fixing this
problem.

By the way, you don't need your config.sh script, hotplug takes care
of that for you.
