That is right: - make libsane1's install script execute a few "ln" commands. Or add a debian/.links - add a few udev scripts to libsane1's debian directory and a debian/.install file that places them at the right places in the filesystem - and somehow make ubuntu ship the resulting package

The next question would be if things would now work if libsane1 would contain a "provides libsane". Would it be possible for you to install esci-interpreter-gt-f720 ignoring the missing dependency? I think the command that does do this would be: sudo dpkg -i --force-depends
