Bug description:
name: iscan
description: simple, easy to use scanner utility for EPSON scanners
Image Scan! is a graphical scanner utility for people that do not need
all the bells and whistles provided by several of the other utilities
out there (xsane, QuiteInsane, Kooka).
At the moment it only supports SEIKO EPSON scanners and all-in-ones.
However, the scanner driver it provides can be used by any other SANE
standard compliant scanner utility.
Note that several scanners require a non-free plugin before they can
be used with this software.

and http://www.avasys.jp/lx-bin2/linux_e/scan/DL2.do
convert rpm package to deb with alien command, source also available for creating authentic ubuntu deb archive.
comments: GPL and LGPL and something interesting in the non-free
directory (but license seems very free) in the src .tar.gz
Installing results in a conflict as shown below:
trying to overwrite `/usr/share/man/man5/sane-epkowa.5.gz', which is also in package libsane-extras
See also package iscan-plugin-gt-s600 which is more interesting.
