In my opinion we should avoid disabling backend by default whenever we can. Two backends are already disabled by default: pnm (for security reasons) and gphoto2 (gphoto2 api changing). So dc240 should be only disabled if it can't be compiled. I don't think disabling it (or any other backend) because it's supported ba another backend or program is reasonable if it doesn't harm anything else. Bye, Henning
