I have the same problem in not being able to get configure to accept my
/usr/lib/libtiff.so.3.4. I even tried making a link 'ln -s /usr/lib/libtiff.so.3.4
/usr/lib/libtiff.so', this same approach took care of the problem of configure not
seeing  libgif + libjpeg, but failed to work for libtiff. My tiff lib is version
3.4-6.

gcc is: egcs-2.91.66. I have seen some other posts regarding the possibility
regarding a bug in the latest gcc with regard to compiling C++ code. I have not
been able to compile Kiconedit due to errors reported with overloading a function
name. Perhaps this is the problem here, gcc?


BTW Sandy, I was able to use the binary rpm.
