libtiff3g version 3.5.2.4 in potato does not seem to be compatible with hylafax-server. I get the following errors:
Starting HylaFAX daemons: faxq/usr/sbin/faxq: Symbol IFFFaxBlackTable' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking /usr/sbin/faxq: Symbol IFFFaxMainTable' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking /usr/sbin/faxq: Symbol IFFFaxWhiteTable' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking hfaxd. Thinking that maybe hylafax had been compiled with a different, incompatible version, I downloaded the hylafax 4.02 debian source and tried to build my own package. This gave the following message: Checking TIFF support. Incompatible/missing TIFF Library. Compilation or execution of the following test program failed: ---------------------------------------------------------- #include "tiffio.h" main() { if (TIFFLIB_VERSION < 19960307) { /* check include file version */ printf("old include files: version %u\n", TIFFLIB_VERSION); exit(-1); } if (strncmp(TIFFGetVersion(), "LIBTIFF, Version 3.4", 20) != 0) { printf("old library: version %s\n", TIFFGetVersion()); exit(-1); } else exit(0); } ---------------------------------------------------------- With: TIFFINC=/usr/include LIBTIFF=-ltiff The above program checks the version of the TIFF library to ensure it is suitable for use with HylaFAX. HylaFAX v4.0pl2 requires a recent TIFF software distribution; one distributed March 7, 1996 or later. If you do not have up to date TIFF software on your system then you can retrieve it from the location where you obtained this software. Otherwise, if you have the right software, verify that you have the TIFFINC and LIBTIFF configuration parameters set correctly for your system (see above) and that any environment variables are setup that are needed to locate a libtiff DSO at runtime (e.g. LD_LIBRARY_PATH). Also be sure that any relative pathnames are made relative to the top of the build area. Unrecoverable error! Once you've corrected the problem rerun this script. /bin/sh: line 2: 9038 Broken pipe yes 9039 Done(1) | CXX=c++ ./configure make: *** [debian/build-stamp] Error 1 This error message implies that a newer version of TIFF is required, however the latest version at ftp://ftp.sgi.com/graphics/tiff/ is tiff-v3.4beta037, while the current version of libtiff3g is 3.5.2.4. Is version 3.5.2.4 incompatible with hylafax? If it doesn't come from SGI, what is the source? I tried building the tiff packages from unstable/main/source, but there were errors which didn't make any sense to me (something about trying to build with libc5 - ????) Has anyone been able to successfully use the current version of hylafax-server?
