RE: xscanimage problem

Thanks for the tip ... so far of all the replies I've seen, none have
addressed or fixed the problem. I have done the glib.h correction and
still get the same error message. Does anyone have another suggestion?

I have double checked and my gimp.h file points to the correct
location of glib.h ....... I have distclean, ./configure, make, and
make install

The only thing that happens is is have to rm the libsane.so prior to
compile or it complains that the file already exists and I get error
and compile is stopped. But when I first rm the libsane.so file then
re-complie is goes smoothly. Then I ldconfig then copy libsan.so.0 to
/usr/local/lib because if I don't it complains get load libsane.so.0
because it can't find it in the /usr/local/lib dir so I copy it from
the sane source dir .

Then if I execute gimp (after adding xscanimage to the plug-ins dir I
still get the : /root/.gimp/plug-ins/xscanimage: illegal option - g
error.

Any suggestions are welcome.

This happens, when xscanimage has been compiled with no GIMP support.
There
is a nasty bug in gimp's .h files which prevents correct detection of
an
installed GIMP. The exact thing to change should be found on the list
archives.
