You do realize that Apple already ships libTIFF installed on MacOS, right?

We are interested in implementing some of our c programs on MAC OS 10.6. We installed X code 3.2.1 and then from terminal we installed the tiff libraries by saying sudo port install tiff. After it finished the installation we can find the libraries under /opt/local/include, but when executing our c program it has trouble finding tiffio.h. So then we copied all the tiff associated .h files to /usr/include and now we are having an error message -ltiff library not found. Does anyone have a fix for this?

Don't use an end-user tool like MacPorts. Get the tiff sources, and deal with configuring them--whether you prefer building them in directly, or building a library and then linking to it.
