Comment 38 for bug 891586

"2CV67, run the following commands
$ tar xf simple-scan-3.4.1.tar.gz
$ cd simple-scan-3.4.1
$ sudo apt-get build-dep simple-scan
$ ./autogen.sh --prefix=`pwd`/install
$ make
$ make install
$ ./src/simple-scan"

Thanks for the detailed instructions (exactly what I need) - but that failed with:
"Checking for required M4 macros...
  yelp.m4 not found
***Error***: some autoconf macros required to build simple_scan
  were not found in your aclocal path, or some forbidden
  macros were found. Perhaps you need to adjust your
  ACLOCAL_FLAGS?

Full terminal dump attached.

Next?
