Ok, Olle, as you can see, I run SuSE 8.2 as well and did not experience 
any problems compiling and installing.  I have never used 
usr.local.org's binaries for Gimp, although I have used some others he 
has.  I stay away from apt-get with the problems and potential problems 
it presents.  I don't remember having a problem with sane on the first 
build of Gimp 1.3.x though.  I have rpm files as well, if you would 
like to try it.  It is installed so that it doesn't interfere with your 
1.2.x install.  We will need either a location for me to upload too or 
a direct transfer to you, as the rpm is quite large.

 On any other day, that might seem strange...
