Hi,

I've prepared a release candidate for libtiff v4.6.0:

- https://download.osgeo.org/libtiff/tiff-4.6.0rc1.tar.gz
- https://download.osgeo.org/libtiff/tiff-4.6.0rc1.tar.gz.sig
- https://download.osgeo.org/libtiff/tiff-4.6.0rc1.tar.xz
- https://download.osgeo.org/libtiff/tiff-4.6.0rc1.tar.xz.sig
- https://download.osgeo.org/libtiff/tiff-4.6.0rc1.zip
- https://download.osgeo.org/libtiff/tiff-4.6.0rc1.zip.sig

Release notes at https://libtiff.gitlab.io/libtiff/releases/v4.6.0.html

Note the following warning, which is the gist of the changes since 4.5.1:

    This version removes a big number of utilities that have suffered from
    lack of maintenance over the years and were the source of various reported
    security issues.
    See "Removed functionality" in https://libtiff.gitlab.io/libtiff/releases/v4.6.0.html#tools-changes
    for the list of removed utilities.
    Starting with libtiff v4.6.0, their source code, at this time, will still     be available in the source distribution, but they will no longer be built     by default, and issues related to them will no longer be accepted in the
    libtiff bug tracker. The only remaining supported TIFF tools are
    tiffinfo, tiffdump, tiffcp, tiffset and tiffsplit.

I'll promote it to final next week if no serious blocking issues are reported.

Thanks to all contributors.

Best regards,
