The sane manualpage says that the libusb headerfiles (libusb-dev) must be present when compiling sane in order to make sane able to use libusb. I downloadet the original sane sourcecode and compiled it with libusb-dev intsalled. The resulting sane-find-scanner worked correctly and found my scanner via libusb and xscanimage does also found the scanner. It seems that libusb-dev was not installed when the current sane packages where build. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
