Hi Rolf, thanks a lot for your feedback.
I successfully installed the latest version from git. $ git clone git://git.debian.org/sane/sane-backends.git $ ./configure $ make $ make install $ scanimage -V scanimage (sane-backends) 1.0.24git; backend version 1.0.24 $ sane-find-scanner -v This is sane-find-scanner from sane-backends 1.0.24git ... searching for USB scanners: ... checking /dev/usb/scanner15... failed to open (Invalid argument) ... checking /dev/usbscanner15... failed to open (Invalid argument) libusb not available << ??? # No USB scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that # you have loaded a kernel driver for your USB host controller and have setup # the USB system correctly. See man sane-usb for details. # SANE has been built without libusb support. This may be a reason << ??? # for not detecting USB scanners. Read README for more details. << ??? "libusb not available" ... so after updating to the new sane version there seems to be a problem between sane and libusb. I read the sane usb manpages, but nothing found for this case. libusb is installed and was working with sane 1.0.21. $ rpm -qa | grep libusb libusb1-1.0.9-0.5.rc1.el6.x86_64 libusb-0.1.12-23.el6.x86_64 $ lsusb | grep Canon Bus 001 Device 006: ID 04a9:1748 Canon, Inc. Pixma MG5150 Any suggestions? Thanks a lot for your help!
