Hi Rolf,

thanks a lot for your feedback.

I successfully installed the latest version from git.

$ git clone git://git.debian.org/sane/sane-backends.git
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install

$ scanimage -V
scanimage (sane-backends) 1.0.24git; backend version 1.0.24

$ sane-find-scanner -v
This is sane-find-scanner from sane-backends 1.0.24git
...
searching for USB scanners:
...
checking /dev/usb/scanner15... failed to open (Invalid argument)
...
checking /dev/usbscanner15... failed to open (Invalid argument)
libusb not available
                                 << ???
  # No USB scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure
that
  # you have loaded a kernel driver for your USB host controller and have
setup
  # the USB system correctly. See man sane-usb for details.
  # SANE has been built without libusb support. This may be a reason
       << ???
  # for not detecting USB scanners. Read README for more details.
     << ???

"libusb not available" ...
so after updating to the new sane version there seems to be a problem
between sane and libusb.

I read the sane usb manpages, but nothing found for this case. libusb is
installed and was working with sane 1.0.21.

$ rpm -qa | grep libusb
libusb1-1.0.9-0.5.rc1.el6.x86_64
libusb-0.1.12-23.el6.x86_64

$ lsusb | grep Canon
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 04a9:1748 Canon, Inc. Pixma MG5150

Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Cheers,
Rémy
