A trick that sometimes work is make a softlink (ln -s) from the existing lib
to the one you need:
ln -s libgimp-1.2.so.... libgimp-1.1.so.18
One never knows. I have upp'd the system with the scanner to MDK 8.0 but have
not tried it yet. It worked all fine in 7.2, and xscanimage perfectly
configured my (scsi) scanner, a Mustek 6000SP
