Hi, I'm the maintainer of sane-backends at Debian.
The release 1.0.25+git20150528 was uploaded from Debian "experimental". [Quote from[1]:] This directory contains packages and tools which are still being developed, and are still in the alpha testing stage. Users shouldn't be using packages from here, because they can be dangerous and harmful even for the most experienced people. [/Quote] It is highly incomprehensible that Ubuntu uses a package from this repository for an official release.
