Doesn't build for me

@sowieso It builds for me. Anyway, gtk2 is going to be dropped upstream. Look here
https://gitlab.com/sane-project/frontend/xsane/-/issues/66

For me it complained about gcc, patch, and make not being installed, maybe add it as build-dependency. In the end it failed with

ERROR: GTK-1.2.0 or newer is needed for compiling xsane
       if you installed gtk as rpm make sure you also included
       gtk-devel

though.

xsane-gimp doesn't build/work with Gimp 3.0, it's upstream issue, xsane-gimp project is outdated, no more maintained. I think that's why it was removed from official repo.

Is the patch forgetting to set HAVE_LIBLCMS2? 0165-xsane-0.999-lcms2.patch:

+/* Define if you have liblcms2. */
+#undef HAVE_LIBLCMS2

When I change undef to define it builds successfully.

Of course I'm up to date. Look at the end of 0165-xsane-0.999-lcms2.patch:

-# include "lcms.h"
+# ifdef HAVE_LIBLCMS2
+#  include "lcms2.h"
+# else
+#  include "lcms.h"

The preprocessor can't find lcms2, so it attempts to insert lcms instead.

@loqy Your error message says 'lcms.h'. There is no lcms package in Arch distribution and lcms is not required for building. Update Arch system and source

I had lcms2 installed while building. I have lcms2.h in /usr/include/lcms2.h

@loqy This is listed in the 'makedepends'. As mentioned bleow, you need lcms2 to build it.

It builds fine for me. lcms2 is needed
