[sane-devel] xsane ignoring .sane-entries?

Hi,
I'm using F16 on an AMD64 machine.
I have 2 scanners, a hp in my home network and an epson on the usb port.
sane-find-scanner reports:
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x010b [Perfection1240]) at libusb:004:002
scanimage -L reports:
device `hpaio:/net/Officejet_6500_E710a-f?zc=HP2CEF9D' is a Hewlett-Packard Officejet_6500_E710a-f all-in-one
If I call
xsane epson:libusb:004:002
or
xsane hpaio:/net/Officejet_6500_E710a-f?ip=192.168.1.28
xsane works fine.
I deleted the .sane-directory in my homedir and created a new one by
saving options from xsane. The .sane-directory now looks like
$ ls .sane/xsane/
batch-lists
epson:libusb:004:002.drc
hpaio:_net_Officejet__6500__E710a-f_ip=192.168.1.28.drc
xsane.mdf
xsane.rc
My problem is that a xsane call without argument doesn't find my
devices and reports an I/O error with
hpaio:/net/Officejet_6500_E710a-f?zc=HP2CEF9D
Why does xsane ignore my .sane/xsane/ ?
My system apparently uses 2 different versions of xsane:
/usr/bin/xsane (without gimp support)
/usr/lib64/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/xsane (with gimp support)
but both have the same problem.
I tried to change the gimp-Menu to call directly
xsane epson:libusb:004:002
or
xsane hpaio:/net/Officejet_6500_E710a-f?ip=192.168.1.28
but this didn't work.
Thanks in advance for any idea!
Michael
