One of the things I really like about sane is that it works, and works
pretty well. The thing I really dislike is that when I compile the
code I build backends for scanners I've never even seen, much less
have on my computer.
Would it make sense to implement some sort of configure time questions
to ask which backends you want compiled into our kernel?
Or even just put in a list of scanners in the Makefile which you have
to enable by default? This way you'd just comile the net, pnm (modulo
it's problems) and you own favorite scanner.
I'll try to find some time to hack something into the latest release
and get it out the door as a patch.
