In the latest raspbian, after entering "sudo apt-get install sane", the version sane 1.0.25 is installed. I need to have version 1.0.27, which already supports my scanner. How can I install the latest version?

  • This is more a question for the raspberrypi part of stackexchange. However, to give you some pointers: compile from sourcecode. Get it from http://www.sane-project.org/source.html. – Ljm Dullaart Mar 12 '18 at 18:10
  • Thanks for the answer. I have already tried to compile, but after running the scanimage -V command I get the verse: scanimage (sane-backends) 1.0.27; backend version 1.0.25 And unfortunately, scanimage still uses version 1.0.25 :( – Piot Mar 12 '18 at 20:02

    de-install `sudo apt-get remove` all the sane-packages before you (re)compile and (re)install the backends. It may be that scanimage uses the lib in `/usr/lib` and 1.0.27 will probably be in `/usr/local/lib` – Ljm Dullaart Mar 13 '18 at 19:50
