Hi Oliver, Thanks for the replies.
I have managed to install xscanimage by installing a runtime of glibc 2.0 and
using the rpms version if Sane 0.74. As far as configuring Sane 1.00 goes the
compile fails in the middle of the backend compile. I have tried editing out
all of the backends in the /backend/makefile.in but it still seems to want to
compile them. Is there another file I need to edit. It seems to be a faulty
backend compi9le that causes the problem.
