Al bajar el fuente
http://lx1.avasys.jp/iscan/2.10.0/iscan_2.10.0-1.tar.gz he encontrado
que en el archivo README se manifiesta lo siguiente:

During our contact with the Free Software Foundation to straighten out
the licensing problems with "Image Scan! for Linux" we noticed that we
needed to clear up what parts are distributed under which conditions.
Here is an attempt.

"Image Scan! for Linux" contains the following parts:

iscan the program you use to scan your images
libsane-epkowa an improved driver for EPSON scanners
libesmod a proprietary module used by iscan

The latter module is provided (in object code form only) under the
terms of the license agreement provided in `non-free/EAPL.en.txt'.
The module is linked against libraries from the `glibc' package
which is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License.

The `iscan' program is covered by the GNU General Public License with
a special exception that allows linking with the `libesmod' module.

The libsane-epkowa driver is released under the same conditions as
the SANE backends, that is under the GNU General Public License with a
special exception that allows linking a SANE library with other files
to produce an executable.

Unless explicitly noted otherwise in the file itself, all other files
in the non-free/ directory are copyright SEIKO EPSON Corporation and
distributed under the terms of the EPSON AVASYS Public License (see
non-free/EAPL.en.txt).

Copies of the GNU General Public License and the GNU Lesser General
Public License can be found in the files `COPYING' and `COPYING.LIB',
respectively.
