As it is stated by the official xsane documentation, I created a symbolic link by the following command (in my case the folders are a bit different):

ln -s /usr/bin/xsane /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/

The link is there. Executing the above command again results in the following error:

ln: failed to create symbolic link '/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/xsane': File exists

But I cannot access xsane as a GIMP-plugin, even after logging out and restarting GIMP by doing so.

A workaround/solution of the problem is on Arch Linux (based distros) to remove the symbolic link and then install xsane-gimp from the AUR.
