Hi, My problem compiling sane-1.0.14 under Slackware 9.1 is solved :
Someone added gphoto2 to the default libraries since 1.0.14 ! However, "configure" found libgphoto2 because of an old gphoto2-config in /usr/local/bin but WASN'T able to find libgphoto2.so at compile time ! This made the test compilation for getenv, strdup and others fail, thereby making it completely impossible to install the backends. What should be improved IMO : configure should only decide to use libgphoto2 if it is able to compile and link a program using these libraries and it should disable gphoto2 in all other cases. Relying on the presence of gphoto2-config is not enough IMO. For now I configured using : ./configure --prefix=/opt/sane-1.0.14 --without-gphoto2 BTW: sane-1.0.14 works fine now ;) Bye, Kees Lemmens.
