configure script for building the MrSID plugin links to system libtiff

Description

I was having some issues with various GDAL commands after I installed the MrSID plugin (V8). After some help from the #gdal channel on IRC - EvenR deduced that this was most likely, "[the] configure script for building the plugin links to system libtiff" and "starting with MrSID DSDK V8, linking against libgeotiff is no longer required".

I think reading through the chat log would provide the best context http://logs.qgis.org/gdal/%23gdal.2011-05-14.log ~Joe

i just compiled v7 plugin, downloaded http://svn.osgeo.org/gdal/trunk/gdal/swig/python/samples/gdalinfo.py and ran python gdalinfo.py byte.tif ... "ERROR 1: WARNING ! libtiff version mismatch : You're linking against libtiff 3.X but GDAL has been compiled against libtiff >= 4.0.0"

i also experience this with the v8 SDK. I'm using GDAL 1.8.0

Apparently nobody handles Trac tickets. Closing this ancient issue as the Ubuntu release in question is EOL.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
