sailfish-fpd won't start (Xperia X fingerprint)

I am playing with the fingerprint reader for some hours now, but to no avail...

Here is my sistuation:

trying to enroll a new fingerprint fails, nothing happens in the screen
CSD fp test fails with "Tiemout while communicating with fingerprint daemon"
systemctl status sailfish-fpd gives me :

I have read that /usr/lib/sailfish-fpd/ should contain a template subfolder, but I can't find it... The only file present in the directory is: fpslave. Maybe it's a problem.

Any idea ?

EDIT1: looking at phkirz comment, I tried this command line (as root): /usr/lib/sailfish-fpd/fpslave --log-to=syslog --log-level=4

Here is the result in journalctl :
