Under Debian potato I'd installed one deb package which provided in one shot
both the Gimp (1.1) and the Sane frontends and backends (all 1.0.1).
Unfortunately, sane backends didn't support my epson perfection 1240 USB
scanner. Therefore I de-installed the debian package downloaded the latest
frontends and backends (1.0.4) and compiled them. Xscanimage, scanimage and
xsane now works great! But, the Debian Gimp package alone (I mean, another
deb package giving Gimp 1.1 only) I've installed isn't "integrated" in the
context. It doesn't acquire images directly using xscanimage, and, I frankly
don't know why, is unable to print on my printer but only on a
file.....irritating!!!
My question is as simple as that:
Starting from the very beginning of my story, let's suppose that I had
installed the original Debian package with the Gimp (1.1) and the Sane
frontends and backends (all 1.0.1), perfectly integrated and working (with
the exception of the scanner). Then, suppose I had compiled the 1.0.4
backends downloaded from the official site. Is it possible to make the newly
compiled backends 1.0.4 work properly with the older frontends 1.0.1?
Ciao
