Thanks jls_legalize for letting me know. I will look into it when I get home tonight.
EDIT: There is also sane-backends-1.0.18.dsl in the same directory that I use whenever I scan, and I am pretty sure it is not corrupted. But with WDef and Juanito cooking up extensions for scanning/printing, it will not be needed for long. WDef & Juanito: I would be happy to build an xsane.uci to go with whichever sane.uci you guys submit if you haven't done that already. Either as part of the sane.uci or a seperate package.

I was working on a new version of hplip by splitting out cups, hplip and sane, but I couldn't test either cups or sane in standalone mode so I stopped...
- 'spoke too soon, I finally managed to print with cups without hplip (I knew I needed hpijs, but forgot hpoj )
Perhaps we could share the work, I could contribute cups-1.3.5.uci and hplip-2.8.2.uci and you guys could contribute sane.uci - note I'd need to know the location of sane since hplip uses its lib(s).
Edit: ...or I could send you the version of sane.uci I made [libusb-0.1.12, sane-backends-1.0.19, sane-frontends-1.0.14], but cannot test (apart from xscanimage and the libs hplip needs).
