That's no problem: Uninstall the SANE backends with
rpm -e --nodeps sane-backends Install "checkinstall": urpmi checkinstall If this does not work, add a mirror carrying the contrib packages to your rpmdrake/urpmi sources and try again. Get sane-backends-1.0.9pre1 or better the current CVS when the CVS server is back again (Use this version because I plan to package SANE 1.0.9 for Mandrake 9.0, especially because I made the Epson Perfection 1260 running together with the maintainer of the "plustek" backend). Add your code which you havn't checked in yet and use "checkinstall" instead of "make install" to make it easier to de-install this SANE version and cleanly install anotherone. Do not run "scannerdrake" any more now, and if you have a multi-function device from HP also do not run "printerdrake". These programs try to install the old packages again (and will choke due to the conflicts with the SANE RPM which "checkinstall" has installed). The xsane provided by Mandrake Linux works also with SANE 1.0.9. If the "scanimage" and "xscanimage" do not work, switch to sane-frontends-1.0.9pre1 the same way as with the sane-backends-1.0.9pre1.
