[E-devel] libtiff: mandatory - optional?

2015-04-14 Thread Leif Middelschulte
Hi,

while packaging efl and friends for Mac OS, I noticed that it depends on 
libtiff, mandatorily. Does that still make sense?

Cheers,

Leif

yes. to load tiff files. libtiff is very common as a dependency (you find it in
most places without having to hand-compile it), buts is it a dep so users get
tiff support. we want AS MUCH support as possible. not as little. the only
reason a loader would be optional is because the dependency for it may be rare
or very unstable

 Cheers,
