I saw a thread list in the archive from a couple months back and was
looking for the resolution.
I am running into the same problem on RH7.1 where I rpm -e the xsane
and sane packages that came with, successfully installed the hpoj driver
for my HP scanner, and successfully installed sane-backends-1.0.4
I know this works because I can get a scan using scanimage.
Now I try to install xsane and get the following errors about sane:
<clipped from the ./configure output...>
checking for sane-config... /usr/local/bin/sane-config
checking for SANE - version >= 1.0.0... no
*** Could not run SANE test program, checking why...
*** The test program compiled, but did not run. This usually means
*** that the run-time linker is not finding SANE or finding the wrong
*** version of SANE. If it is not finding SANE, you'll need to set your

*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for
the

installed
*** or that you have moved SANE since it was installed. In the latter case,

ERROR: SANE-1.0.0 or newer is needed for compiling xsane
- if you installed SANE as rpm make sure you also included
sane-devel
****************************************************************
<End clip>
but sane-config works (and returns v1.0.4) when I run it directly:
[rob@localhost xsane-0.77]$ sane-config
Usage:
sane-backends-config --version - show installed script and SANE
version
sane-backends-config --ldflags - linker flags required to link
with SANE
sane-backends-config --libs - libraries required to link with
SANE
sane-backends-config --cflags - compiler flags required to find
SANE headers
sane-backends-config --help - show usage info (this message)
sane-backends-config --help SUBCOMMAND - show help for SUBCOMMAND
sane-backends-config --prefix - prefix used during SANE compile
sane-backends-config --exec-prefix - exec-prefix used during SANE
compile
[rob@localhost xsane-0.77]$ sane-config --version
1.0.4
/usr/local/bin is in my $PATH and /usr/local/lib is in /etc/ld.so.conf
and I then run ldconfig.
I'm really banging my head against this one...
Any tips?
