I noticed that yesterday. The bug was introduced by me applying the zeta patch and not noticing a failed hunk in backend/Makefile.in two weeks ago. It installs the libraries to /usr/(local/)lib/sane/ but forgets to install libsane.so itsself in /usr/(local/)lib/ . So the backends are there but without libsane beeing in the right directory they can't be loaded. The config files aren't installed either. > It does install a bunch of libraries in /usr/bin/sane.

Any pointers are highly appreciated.I have put a full build > log in http://thewizardstower.org/sane.log. Some lines were missing in backend/Makefile.in. The bug is fixed in CVS. The latest snapshot should work, please try that one. I'm a bit surprised that this hasn't been noticed earlier. The bug is only visible if sane hasn't been installed before but still I'd expected more people testing sane-backends and finding such bugs. Bye, Henning
