[sane-devel] failing attempt to make sane-backends-1.0.18

[Julien Michielsen]

Today I started an attemp to install a self-made xsane, bit allready 
failed in the attempt to make sane-backends-1.0.18 .
This is my first attempt of a "home-install" xsane. Before I obediently 
installed the ready-made rpm's that came with my SuSE distribution, but 
this time (SuSE 10.2) the system was unable to install. On january 1st I 
posted a message to this list ("Anyone aware of mfpport.ko?"). The xsane 
version that comes with SuSE 10.2 only gives "insmod: can't read
'/lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/kernel/drivers/mfpportctrl/mfpport.ko'", 
and subsequently dies. I posted this to the suse-bugs list, but still 
got no reply.
So now I tries it myself, but already in the make process it bumps out.

The make-process appearantly breaks when it compiles sanei_scsi.c, which 
in it's turn uses rsm_open_device. The compiler warns
"sanei_scsi.c:781: warning: 'rsm_open_device' is deprecated (declared at 
/usr/include/resmgr.h:24)"

the messages:

Anyone who might be able to help me getting rhis installed?
Thanks
