No package 'gudev-1.0' found -- can't resolve

Asked by Bryce Nesbitt

I'm on a 64 bit machine, trying to compile simplescan. I get the following, yet gudev appears to be installed fine. I see an old bug report the gudev is not even actually required. Where can I go next?

SIMPLE_SCAN_LIBS='/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/'
> ./configure
configure: error: Package requirements (
    gtk+-3.0
    gmodule-export-2.0
    gthread-2.0
    zlib
    cairo
    gdk-pixbuf-2.0
    gudev-1.0
) were not met:

compiling newer releases of simple scan on older ubuntu releases has always been problematic (usually because of vala, not udev). robert does not have the time to work on that and nobody else stepped forward...

Have you installed libgudev-1.0-dev ?
