Henning,
Thanks for responding. Yes, you are right, I misread the
INSTALL documentation. The /usr/local/lib entry is
required. Unfortunately, adding this and running ldconfig
did NOT solve the problem -- the same error occurs at the
same place when running ./configure for sane-frontend-1.0.4:
checking for SANE - version >= 1.0.0... no
*** Could not run SANE test program, checking why...
*****************************************************************
ERROR: SANE is needed for compiling sane-frontends
- if you installed SANE as rpm make sure you
also included sane-devel
*****************************************************************
I even tried reinstalling the sane-backend after running
ldconfig, and then rerunning ldconfig after this reinstall,
which didn't seem likely to help, and it didn't.
