Do you really think that Redhat bugzilla is the right place for this?

That's what I have been wondering for a long time...
Some years ago I tried to follow the very sparse suggestions in the wine 
manual:
http://www.winehq.org/docs/wineusr-guide/misc-things-to-configure#AEN442
without success, even after having made available xscanimage (which 
isn't included in Fedora's packaging of sane).
I gave up in the end.
