Did a strings on the scanner binary, found "SANE_DEFAULT_DEVICE".
Tried it:
root@dizzy:bin # export
SANE_DEFAULT_DEVICE='hp:/dev/scsi/host2/bus0/target1/lun0/generic'
root@dizzy:bin # ./scanimage

Q: How does sane process argv[0] to get the libdir?
The installation I ran through used:
cd /scratch/sane-backends-1.0.6;
./configure --prefix=/opt/sane/1.06;
make all install;
cd /scratch/sane-frontends-1.0.6;
./configure --prefix=/opt/sane/1.0.6;
make all install;
The frontends seemd to find the backends they needed during the
configure and compile, but something isn't mangling the paths
properly to get the lib's...
Mangling the lib's gets me quite a bit further:
root@dizzy:bin # export LD_LIBRARY_PATH='/opt/sane/1.0.6/lib/sane';
root@dizzy:bin # ./scanimage

Any suggestions on handling this?
Suggestion: Add a "--sane-libs" switch to sane-config that prints
out where scanimage expects the lib's to be.
thanx.
