Hello, I ended up removing all fedora packages for sane (except the backend libs in i386 since removing them also removes wine...)
Then I downloaded the latest git for the backends, compiled and installed; the scanner was immediately recognized and working. I guess Fedora's version is too old since the scanner was recognized but didn't work correctly. Thanks for your answer anyway, it made better sense :^) F.
