Subject: tiff3.4 and libtiff.so.3.3 port to FBSD?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I need to compile the latest version of tiff3.4 with libtiff.so.3.
Unfortunately, I cannot make do with version 3.3 in the ports
collection.

I can successfully use the 'configure' program to compile and produce
tiff.h,tiffio.h and libtiff.a, however, it does not produce the
libtiff.so.3.

I have checked the patches in the ports directory which are used
to produce the so, however, I do not have the knowledge to apply this to
3.4.

Has anybody successfully ported tiff3.4 to FreeBSD? I would appreciate
some pointers.

Thanks in advance,
