If there is a problem with the included debian folder, report a bug[1],
preferably with a clean patch.  That Ubuntu's build farm does not know
anything about an 'unstable' distribution is Ubuntu's problem as far as
I'm concerned.

I don't know about flegita or xsane, but iscan is not GPL.
As a whole, iscan is GPL with exceptions and includes (and depends on) a 
decidedly non-free library.  The 'epkowa' backend does not depend on any 
non-free components but it does include run-time support for their use.
