Strange. It doesn't test for libusb at all. Usually that means that
the SANE version is too old or sane-find-scanner doesn't have libusb
support. But as it's linked against libusb that would be even more
strange.

Get a proper SANE installation :-)

To find out what sane-find-scanner really does, please send the
following output:

SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_USB=255 sane-find-scanner 2>/tmp/log

Please show us the /tmp/log file.

Bye,
