I've installed the following packages because they sound interesting for the task. For now of all of them I just use git git-annex.

Code:
ii bup        0.25-1     amd64 highly efficient file backup system based on git

AGFA Snapscan e50

General:
As starting point to get your scanner working under Linux go to SANE: Supported Devices

Get the AGFA Scanwise driver package, which contains the necessary firmware "Snape50.bin" and save that somewhere.
Then modify /etc/sane.d/snapscan.conf:
Code:
firmware /path/to/ScanWise/Drivers/Snape50.bin
That's it.
