That's only valid if you use one of the BSDs, nor MacOS.

I think they are talking about kernel headers somewhere in
/usr/src/sys, not /dev/.

SANE doesn't look for /dev. Have a look at configure(.in). First, we
check for usb.h. It should be in /usr/local/include or any other
default include path. Then we check if libusb is available and if it
contains usb_get_busses. If both is true, libusb support is activated.

Please check, if you have /usr/local/include/usb.h and
/usr/local/lib/libusb.so.

Please check if config.log (of sane-backends) contains info about
usb.h and libusb.

An please, don't create a new therad with every mail. Just reply to
the mails.

Bye,
