root at raspberrypi:~:x86$ scanimage --version
scanimage (sane-backends) 1.0.24; backend version 1.0.24

ugh that is old debian-8 image from exagear is a bit dated.

I'll get the current backend and compile that and see if that works.
I have no idea how or if this will work since it is an emulated x86
architecture.
running on arm
