    I am no expert but it might be because you have two Gimps on the
    machine.
    I had trouble getting sane to install until I did this one thing.

    I went to /usr/lib where some of the gimp 1.0.4 libraries reside and
    moved
    10 files that start with libgimp.xx to a temp directory. I then built
    sane 1.0.2 and had no problem. Now I could only link the newer Gimp
    1.0.23
    by doing this but by moving the files back into /usr/lib you will still
    be able to run 1.0.4 but will not be able to link it to sane.

    I think sane can only be built using the libraries of either version and
    cannot use both at the same time. Perhaps someone smarter out there has
    a
    way to have both versions of Gimp up and running and being able to link
    both versions to sane.

    I have had a problem with Gimp .XX having trouble reading some kinds of
    files
    where 1.0.4 was still able to read them. I could open the file in
    question
    under 1.0.4 and save it and then 1.0.23 would be able to read them.
