Re: GTK Can't Find libtiff

[JS <oghistorian yahoo com>]

Hi Sven,

Here is the error that comes up for configure while
compiling GTK:

checking for TIFFReadScanline in -ltiff... no
checking for TIFFWriteScanline in -ltiff... no
checking for TIFFFlushData in -ltiff34... no
configure: WARNING: *** TIFF plug-in will not be built
(TIFF library not found) ***
configure: error:
*** Checks for TIFF loader failed. You can build
without it by passing
*** --without-libtiff to configure but some programs
using GTK+ may
*** not work properly

Also, here is what I can find for the word "tiff" in
config.log.  I am not sure if this is every instance
that relates to libtiff, but I hope it helps:

ac_cv_lib_tiff34_TIFFFlushData=no
ac_cv_lib_tiff_TIFFReadScanline=no
ac_cv_lib_tiff_TIFFWriteScanline=no

HAVE_TIFF_FALSE=''
HAVE_TIFF_TRUE=''

LIBTIFF=''

Thanks again,
