Hi guys,<br>
<p>
One of the things I really like about sane is that it works, and works<br>
pretty well. The thing I really dislike is that when I compile the<br>
code I build backends for scanners I've never even seen, much less<br>
have on my computer.<br>
<p>
Would it make sense to implement some sort of configure time questions<br>
to ask which backends you want compiled into our kernel?<br>
<p>
Or even just put in a list of scanners in the Makefile which you have<br>
to enable by default? This way you'd just comile the net, pnm (modulo<br>
it's problems) and you own favorite scanner. <br>
<p>
I'll try to find some time to hack something into the latest release<br>
and get it out the door as a patch.<br>
<p>
