Hi Henning & other friends,
you were right! I found duplicated files in different directories of the
likes of libsane.so.x (where x is whatevere figure you like).
Through ldd I checked what the right libraries were and copied the very
last
version of each library in the right directories.
Now both xsane and xscanimage works properly and my scanner answers
smoothly
to my requests! Great!
BUT now the problem is with the Gimp.
I've tried to download gimp1.1 through dselect (the standard (great!!)
package manager under debian) and it says that "gimp conflicts with sane
and
xsane" ???.
What does it mean? I can't make head or tail of it above of because at
the
very beginning of this story I had downloaded a sane-gimp package which
was
supposted to give me support for the scanner under gimp 1.1 through
xscanimage. Unfortunately, as you know, the sane frontends and backends
were
obsolete (1.0.1) with respect to my epson perfection 1240 usb
scanner........
Could yoy clarify the above mentioned point to me?
By the way, I was thinking of a solution of this kind:
I could delete everything I've done, install the sane-gimp package and
finally compile the new-brand backends only. Do you think that this
could
work?
