My old Canon CanoScan LIDE 25 scanner is not working properly with my new hardware (Intel NUC) and Fedora 21.
I suspected Fedora 21 bug, but the problem is with the hardware, exactly as describe here. Works once and got stuck when scanning next.
It is claimed problem is solved in version 1.025 of Sane.
To compile Sane one has to install libusb-devel package first:
yum install libusb-devel
Then:

git clone git://git.debian.org/sane/sane-backends.git
cd sane-backends
# I would like to install whole stuff in /usr/local
# without removing original fedora package
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --sysconfdir=/usr/local/etc \
--localstatedir=/var BACKENDS=plustek
make
make install
Sane works now.
I would like to avoid mixing original Sane files with
the new ones, so I use --prefix and --sysconfdir
options with appropriate values. New Sane will be installed
in /usr/local and it will be run by default--no need to remove
original Fedora packages.
