[hylafax-users] libtiff and hylafax

[cbaker@bbbscolumbus.org]

I am working on Mandrake 9.0. It's just a Pentium 200 with 64MB of 
RAM which was donated to us, and I plan to set up a Hylafax server 
for about 40 users.

I have gotten to the point at which I run ./configure and have 
encountered a problem. It seems to need a TIFF library. The 
message is:

Missing TIFF Library.
Compilation of the following test program failed:
------------------------------------------------------
#include "tiffio.h"
main()
{
printf( "header_ver=%d lib_ver=%s", TIFFLIB_VERSION, 
TIFFGetVersion() ); exit(0);
}
------------------------------------------------------
TIFFINC=/usr/local/include
LIBTFF=-L/usr/local/lib -ltiff
Verify that you have the TIFFINC and LIBTIFF configuration 
parameters set correctly for your system (see above) and that any 
environment variables are setup that are needed to locate a libtiff 
DSO at runtime (e.g. LD_LIBRARY_PATH). Also be sure that any 
relative pathnames are made relative to the top of the build area.
Unrecoverable error! Once you've corrected the problem rerun this 
script.

I read the Hylafax documentation and thought the necessary 
prerequisites were installed. One of those was prerequisites is a 
libtff package. I did "rpm -q libtiff", and found that libtiff wasn't 
installed. But I also found that libtiff3-3.5.7-5.mdk is installed.

Apparently, I have the wrong libtiff here. Can I install both on the 
same machine? I have noticed that if I try to "rpm -e libtiff3", a lot of 
depedencies (including Hylafax) show up.
