Hm.  The iscan ebuild includes this editorial comment:

# FIXME:
# Make jpeg/png optional. The problem is, that the
# configure script ignores --disable-*, if the
# corresponding lib is found on the system.
# Furthermore, isane doesn't compile w/o libusb,   <========== note
# this should be fixed somehow.

I googled for isane and found nothing, so I'm wondering if that's just
a typo for 'iscan'.  I dunno, but it's easy to check if you have libusb
installed.

I know nothing about iscan, but I do use xsane regularly and I love it.
I might be able to help you with xsane if you provide more details.
