7 Hm. The iscan ebuild includes this editorial comment:

9 # FIXME:
10 # Make jpeg/png optional. The problem is, that the
11 # configure script ignores --disable-*, if the
12 # corresponding lib is found on the system.
13 # Furthermore, isane doesn't compile w/o libusb, <========== note
14 # this should be fixed somehow.

16 I googled for isane and found nothing, so I'm wondering if that's just
17 a typo for 'iscan'. I dunno, but it's easy to check if you have libusb
18 installed.

20 I know nothing about iscan, but I do use xsane regularly and I love it.
21 I might be able to help you with xsane if you provide more details.
