[sane-devel] Build error at umax_pp_low

[Kenneth Kurkio]

Thanks for the advice. Now I get past umax_pp_low, but the build ends with
another error:

../tools/sane-desc: error in loading shared libraries: libusb-0.1.4:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [sane-backends-external.html] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/kenneth/sane-backends-1.0.15/doc'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

I don't understand this as I do have the file /usr/local/lib/libusb-0.1.4

My kernel version is 2.2.17-14 so I guess it is older than 2001.
