It appears that I have an older TIFF library, so linking fails:
symbol in file
_TIFFmalloc glyphs-eimage.o
TIFFClientOpen glyphs-eimage.o
_TIFFfree glyphs-eimage.o
ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to temacs
Just how old is your libtiff? The oldest libtiff.so I have laying
around has a timestamp of January 4th, 1996[1] and it has all of those
symbols.
Perhaps it's time you considered upgrading?
Footnotes:
[1] The great a.out -> ELF upgrade, so the library is at least from
the autumn of '95.
