I tried getting things to work with a hyphenated backend name, but to no avail. The dll backend uses the literal name in dll.conf to check for functions in the backend :-( Here's part of the output of running iscan with SANE_DEBUG_DLL=128:
[dll] load: dlopen()ing `/usr/lib/sane/libsane-epson-kowa.so.1' [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_init [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_exit [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_get_devices [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_open [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_close [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_get_option_descriptor [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_control_option [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_get_parameters [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_start [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_read [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_cancel [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_set_io_mode [dll] load: unable to find _sane_epson-kowa_get_select_fd Some minor mods in the dll backend could easily fix that (I'd think), but since I have to rely on existing sane-backends packages out there that is not an option for me right now. I'll go with epkowa for the backend.

I hacked around this with -DBACKEND_NAME=$(subst -,_,$*) to keep my sources compilable. -- Olaf Meeuwissen EPSON KOWA Corporation, ECS GnuPG key: 6BE37D90/AB6B 0D1F 99E7 1BF5 EB97 976A 16C7 F27D 6BE3 7D90 Penguin's lib! -- I hack, therefore I am -- LPIC-2
