2003.12.30 05:38 "[Tiff] official webpage and mailing list, html/TIFFTechNote2.html, patches", by Jeremy C. Reed
Hello,
I am a pkgsrc developer. pkgsrc is a portable framework and specifications for configuring, building, and installing thousands of third-party applications. It is maintained and used by the NetBSD project, but is also useful for Linux, BSD/OS, AIX, Solaris and various other operating systems. (It also provides binary packages and package admin tools.)
I am working on upgrading our pkgsrc/graphics/tiff package.
I see 3.6.1 is out.
What is the official webpage? Should I use http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/ or http://www.libtiff.org/?
The www.libtiff.org webpage has instructions for non-existent mailing list and has old version.
Also, where is html/TIFFTechNote2.html? It is not included in source tarball for 3.6.0 and 3.6.1 although the Makefile.in references it (and make install tries to install it). What is the copyright and license for the /TIFFTechNote2.html file locate at the libtiff website?
Also, please have a look at these patches:
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/~checkout~/pkgsrc/graphics/tiff/patches/patch-aa?rev=1.12&content-type=text/plain
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/~checkout~/pkgsrc/graphics/tiff/patches/patch-ad?rev=1.9&content-type=text/plain
And for AMD64 support, please consider the following:
