I installed libusb*-devel package and now the installation & compilation went
smoothly. I didn't need to use the --disable-sanetest option. But now I have
another problem: XSANE refuses to work as gimp plugin. The configure script
said "GIMP support enabled" or something like that, but xsane doesn't appear
anywhere in the gimp menus. I've put symlinks to xsane in the plug-ins
directories. I tried deleting the pluginrc file and re-starting gimp -
didn't help. Grateful for any help,
Johan Bengtsson
