    Hi,

    SANE installs libraries in /usr/local/lib (if the defaults aren't
    changed). Some Linux distributions don't look automatically for
    libraries in /usr/local/lib so the SANE libs aren't found. In this
    case you can either add the path to the libs (/usr/local/lib) to
    /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig or set the environment variable
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH when running a frontend.

    Bye,
      Henning
