Comment 100 for bug 1707352

@staedtler-przyborski -- Thanks!! It worked for my V500. Now BOTH the WF-3540 scanner and V500 are working as well as ever. scanimage -L finds them both; and iscan, simplescan, and xsane run them.

Good work!

I'm guessing there's a lot of old driver install debs out in the world that are putting their stuff into /usr/lib/sane instead of into /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane which seems to be the current "proper" place. Since those installers are not likely to be rebuilt, the next best solution would be for sane to look in /user/lib/sane if it fails to find what it's looking for in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane.
