Description
It looks like when new VueScan binary versions are picked up for Flathub the flatpak metadata isn't being updated with the new version number.
Current version is 9.8.52.03, site and 'flatpak list' show 9.8.01.
I'm not sure what the update mechanism/procedure is, but the applications' download page does return a .tgz with the version# in the name and the version# is listed on the page.
The developer has expressed some frustration with this, can the updater be improved?

Research direction
Start by tracing how the VueScan download page and its versioned .tgz are consumed when Flathub updates the app, then compare that metadata with the version shown by `flatpak list`. The work is done when a new VueScan binary produces matching version numbers on the Flathub site and in `flatpak list`.
