Package: libtiff4-dev
Version: 3.9.5-2
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
libtiff4-dev doesn't include a .pc file, making the library
invisible to pkg-config.
For me, this means that I can't configure piglit (mesa's
own GL test suite) from git without writing a .pc file
myself.
It would be great if you could fix up the package.
(This is on an up-to-date debian unstable install.)
Thanks!

I'm closing this bug report about libtiff4-dev not including a .pc file
and letting you know that libtiff-dev, which is libtiff5-dev, does.
libtiff4-dev is no longer being developed, and no .pc file is included
upstream, so this will never be fixed. However, if you change your
build dependencies to libtiff-dev (starting with 4.0.1-6, which I'm
uploading today), then you will have a .pc file and can use pkg-config.
If you want to be complete certain that you get a .pc file, you can
change your build dependency to include "libtiff-dev (>> 4.0.1-6~)".
