How to configure, build, and install SANE-FRONTENDS.

Quick install:
==============

./configure
make
make install        


- You must install the sane-backends package before you can configure this
  package. If you use pre-compiled binaries (e.g. from your distribution) you
  will also have to install the SANE headers (maybe in a package called
  sane-devel or similar)

- For xscanimage and xcam you need the X Window libraries and headers. 
  Further more GTK version 1.2.0 (or above) must be installed together with 
  its header files. GTK can be found at http://www.gtk.org/.

- If you want to use xscanimage as a GIMP plug-in, the GIMP libraries and
  headers are necessary. See http://www.gimp.org/.

- If you get an error message that libsane-dll.so.1 or libsane-so.1 is not
  found, you have to tell your system where the SANE-libraries are installed.

- On some systems the library directory "/usr/local/lib" is not searched by
  the systems dynamic library loader.  If SANE is installed in "/usr/local/..."
  you have to tell your systems dynamic library loader to search in
  "/usr/local/lib".  For linux: add the path "/usr/local/lib" to
  /etc/ld.so.conf and call ldconfig (as root).

- For sane-1.0.1 you have to add a line with the path to the SANE libraries
  (normally /usr/local/lib/sane) to /etc/ld.so.conf and call ldconfig (as
  root).  For sane-1.0.2 (and later versions) the path to the SANE libs
  MUST NOT be listed in /etc/ld.so.conf
