[sane-devel] A problem with Epson GT2500

Now, I have :
- sane-backends-1.0.19
- sane-frontends-1.0.14
- iscan_2.19.0-4

All these programs are now locally compiled from the source code (I don't 
use anymore Debian packages). But, I have still the same problem... 
Automatic Document Feeder seems to be "inactive".

Is there something I could do to try to debug ?

Regards,

Alex
