Well, check your system, if you have gimp-config installed. > checking for gimptool... no Or gimptool. > checking for libgimp/gimp.h... no > checking for libgimp/gimpfeatures.h... no And the header files... You don't have GIMP installed (completely). > I have the following rpm gimp libraries installed > libgimp1.2_1-1.2.3-17mdk > libgimp1.2-1.2.3-17mdk > gimp-1.2.3-17mdk > gimpprint-4.2.2-2mdk > libgimpprint1-4.2.2-2mdk Most distributions split library packages into two parts: the normal one containing the libraries and the -dev (or devel) version containing headers and tools like gimp-config. Install the libgimp-dev (or devel) package, also. By the way, that's explained in the installation documentation (xsane.INSTALL) :-) Bye, Henning
