Installing genesys on Debian



Hello, all!

I am trying to install genesys, first in my Lenny box and then in Squeeze.  
The SANE website says that my scanner is fully supported.  

I have downloaded and extracted the file via the SANE website.  I am now 
having problems installing it.  The main problem is obviously PEBKAC, but any 
brainpower I might normally have has deserted me.  Here is my least 
unsuccessful attempt so far. (* below my signature.)

What destination should I be specifying?  I have no idea where in my system I 
should be putting it, so that SANE and Xsane can find and use it.

Thanks,
Lisi
