I have received a warning from ./configure that it
cannot find the TIFF libraries. I have the libtiff3g
package installed, including /usr/include/tiffio.h
which according to the Debian man pages has the
TIFFOpen function. Should I proceed with the
compilation or am I missing something important?
I also received additional warnings about libpq-fe.h
(PostgreSQL) and GL/GLwMDrawA.h both of which I do not
have installed and don't really need unless Grass
demands them.
Warning message from ./config :
...
checking TIFF include dirs... -I/usr/include
checking TIFF library dirs... -L/usr/lib
checking for TIFFOpen in -ltiff... (cached) no
configure: warning: *** Failed to find TIFF library
...
Thanks for any tips before I charge ahead.

You do have libtiff3g-dev? This is necessary.

Not a big deal. You won't be able to compile r3.showdspf or any of the
PostgreSQL specific modules.
Thanks for any tips before I charge ahead.
If you already have the development libraries for TIFF, then remove
config.cache and try running ./configure again. If it already has a
failure in the cache, it won't run the test again. If that still fails,
please specify which release of GRASS you are using.
It is pretty easy to edit the file grass/src/CMD/head/head.$ARCH to add
-ltiff to TIFFLIBPATH. You shouldn't need to do anything else.

Hi David
Since you are compiling beta 10, please be warned not to use any of the
"make clean" targets
make mostlyclean
make clean
make distclean
make maintainer-clean
make savebinclean
There is a serious bug in the beta 10 Makefile that can cause system
directories to be deleted. This problem has been fixed in CVS.
Just thought I would warn you.

Hi all,
please use the January-CVS-snapshot from:
http://www.geog.uni-hannover.de/grass/grass5/source/snapshot/
(or mirrors sites)
This is the pre-beta11 which shall be released soon (we just simplify
internal Gmakefile stuff).
Cheers
