To: tiff@sgi.com
Subject: FreeBSD shared-library
Date: Sun, 11 May 1997 19:41:15 PDT
From: Richard Mlynarik <mly@adoc.xerox.com>
I've fixed what seems to be an obvious bug in Linux shared-library
building, but I'm in no position to test it. It looks like it would
never have worked.
You have old code; beta036 has had this change since it was put out in Feb.
I'd guess that code nearly-identical to the freebsd stuff would work
for BSDI and NetBSD; I'm not able to verify this, either.
Again, the latest configure should work for BSDI and NetBSD.
It would be nice if the mailing list archives in
ftp://ftp.sgi.com/graphics/tiff/archives/ were maintained;
I don't have time to be on a mailing list, but it would be nice to be
able to search for things when I cared.
Sorry, can't help here. There are issues with pushing stuff through our
firewall that keep me from updating the archive regularly. If someone
wanted to host a web site for the TIFF archives I'd be happy to provide a
copy of my MLA tools that they could use to make the archives searchable
(look at http://www.vix.com/cgi-bin/mlaform/hylafax/Archives/? for example).

If you have a chance please look at the current sources and send me a
non-GNU-style diff/patch (I tried applying the above but it failed).
