I've got a problem with my clients waking up and not
finding any available devices. (find-scanner returns
an empty list, scanimage --list-devices also finds none)
William: You quoted the part where I said "THIS IS NOT A SYMLINK",
and then suggested that I not use symbolic links. I'm not. I
swear. I wouldn't lie. :-)
Oliver: You said I had a very old version, and suggested that I
reinstall. I have version 1.0.0, which was recent a few weeks
ago. (This is Freshmeat's most recent version, and the version
available for download at ftp.mostang.com) Is there a newer one?
Two other people suggested it might be a permissions problem
on the scanner. How much more open than 666 can it be? Does
the scanner device use execute permission for something?
DON'T GET ME WRONG... I appreciate the input. I know we need to
eliminate the easy stuff before progressing, so *please* *help*,
I'd really like to get this working!
Here's a copy of the earlier query:
===
More data... when I build the system in the first place,
with no special arguments to ./configure
in /usr/local/lib, I have three libraries (symlinks)
libsane.a libsane.so libsane.so.1
in /usr/local/lib/sane, I have LOTS of libraries, including:
libsane-umax.a libsane-umax.la
Now when I run the client in the debugger, I get an error
message...
982 status=sane_get_devices(&device_list,SANE_FALSE);
(gdb)
[dll] loading backend umax
[dll] load: couldn't find /usr/local/lib/libsane-umax.so.1 (No such file
or directory)
[dll] loading backend net
[dll] load: couldn't find /usr/local/lib/libsane-net.so.1 (No such file
or directory)
983 if (status != SANE_STATUS_GOOD)
So, putting on my thinking cap, I decided I'd build a big
version to start with, and did a ./configure --disable-shared,
and did a "gmake clean all"
Now I get:
gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../include -I../include

Any ideas on how to proceed at this point?
