Any particular reason you're trying to build version 1.0.20?  Ubuntu
11.10 ships with 1.0.22.  Latest development code from the SANE git
repositories builds fine for me (Debian testing/unstable (wheezy), last
updated yesterday).

Rerun `./configure` so it detects the new software you just installed.

Hope this helps,
