As I am not familiar with working with source RPM, I tried to install sane
from sane-backends-1.0.4.tar.gz and sane-frontends-1.0.4.tar.gz.
Editing /sanei/sanei_scsi.c and ./configure, make and make-install of
sane-backends-1.0.4 went OK. However I have problems when running
./configure for sane-frontends-1.0.4:
First ./configure gave following error message:
quote
The sane-config script installed by SANE could not be found. If SANE was
installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in your path, or set the
SANE-CONFIG environment variable to the full path to sane-config
unquote
I then added /usr/local/bin to the path. When I ran ./configure again I got
a new error message:
quote
Could not run SANE test program, checking why...
ERROR: SANE is needed for compiling sane-frontends
unquote
I then ran ./configure --disable-sanetest (without really knowing what I was
doing) and now ./configure and make completed, but make install aborted when
it got to making_install in src, as follows:
quote
....
make [1]: Entering directory '/root'sane-frontends-1.0.4/src'
...make installdirs /usr/local/bin /usr/local/share
/bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token ';'
/bin/sh: -c: line 1: 'for program in ; do /usr/bin/install -c ${program}
/usr/local/bin/${program}: done
make [1]: *** [Install] Error 2
make [1]: Leaving directory '/root/sane-frontends-1.0.4/src'
make: *** [Install recursive] Error 1
