Hi John,<br>
<p>
I think it is ok to compile and install all backends. The may be 6MB<br>
harddiskspace<br>
do not hurt - if they do the machine is not the right one for a scanner!<br>
<p>
The "normal" user does use a binary and that has to come with all backends<br>
- or do you like to create dozens of sane-binaries -- for each scanner or<br>
backend one?<br>
<p>
If we have different versions for different scanners I am sure I will get<br>
thousends of<br>
questions why the scanner xyz does not work although sane sais it is supported.<br>
<p>
If someone likes to remove the libs thats ok, but sane should come with all<br>
backends!<br>
<p>
Bye<br>
Oliver<br>
