I recall someone offering to provide a libtiff3.4, & think they may even uploaded it somewhere ? (incoming / send-pr / ? ) If anyone has a standard libtiff3.4 port wrapper available, please contact me or list hylafax@freebsd.org, Thanks PS Please confine the thread to libtiff as I've dual posted to { ports@ & hylafax@ } freebsd.org Thanks.
