I think I said that it would be trivial to port XSane to GIMP-2.0. In the time it took you to write this mail, you could have done the port instead. I've just spent a few minutes on it and have xsane working with GIMP from CVS. Since I don't have a scanner here, I couldn't give it much testing but I don't see why it should not work. The major obstacle was that the xsane tarball seems to be missing some m4 macros that are needed to recreate the configure script. Since XSane already compiles against GTK+-2.0, I got away with changing two or three lines of code, all other changes were done only to adapt the build environment to use GIMP-2.0. Since I don't want to step on the feet of the XSane maintainer I am not going to post a diff here. If Oliver Rauch is interested in my changes, I am hereby offering my help to port XSane to GIMP-2.0.
