[gentoo-user] portage update problems due to sane-backends

[Jeff Cranmer]

Can anyone help me with an update issue?

I do not seem to be able to update a lot of my system, because sane-backends 
fails to compile.

This is the error I get

make[1]: Entering directory 
`/var/tmp/portage/media-gfx/sane-backends-1.0.18-r4/work/sane-backends-1.0.18/backend'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `libsane-hpaio.la', needed by `all'.  
Stop.

Can anyone suggest a workaround?

Thanks
