    1.01 is really old. I'm pretty sure that it has lots of bugs.

    If configure finds the header I'm pretty sure that it's there.
    Probably in /usr/include/libgimp/gimp.h or /usr/local/include/libgimp/gimp.h.

    look for the output when xscanimage.c is compiled/linked. There should be a
    "-lgimp" in the compiler line. Try "nm /usr/local/bin/xscanimage | grep gimp".
    This should show all references to gimp functions in the xscanimage
    binary.

    This is misleading. The -g option shouldn't be used manually. Just try
    to start xscanimage by gimp (put a link to xscanimage into
    ~/.gimp/plug-ins/).

    I'm sure they do. Try 'locate gimp.h' or 'find / -name "gimp\.h" -print'

    Bye,
