Bug Description
sane-backends 1.0,.23 in ubuntu 12.10 has a new backend kodakaio for kodak aio printers
The backend can autodetect network connected scanners using functions in cups.
The auto detect code is only compiled if cups.h is found at compile time.
It seems likely that cups.h was not found at compile time when the package was built?
If I compile and install kodakaio myself, the autodetect works with ubuntu 12.10
Can anyone confirm this diagnosis?
Is it possible to compile sane-backends with cups installed when building this package?
Or is it necessary for me to always compile the autodetect code and check for the presence of cups at run time?

Maybe there needs to be a dependency on libcups2-dev added to sane-backends ?
