Is there a reason to build these from source, rather than using the
GnuWin32 binaries:

http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/jpeg.htm
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/tiff.htm

Ideally, we should build as little as possible ourselves.

If using --with-tiff and --without-jpeg works, either your TIFF library
doesn't have JPEG support, or it can find the JPEG library without any
assistance. Either way, adding --with-jpeg won't make any difference.

Yes, currently TIFF library doesn't have JPEG support (as this libjpeg is
not present in my MSYS environment);

 ODBC and maybe MySQL might be good things to add
 
 They are actually in my wish list, along with jpeg support, FFMPEG, 
 xerces and some other things.

JPEG support doesn't actually mean anything.

None of the Makefiles use the JPEG variables (JPEGLIB, JPEGLIBPATH and
JPEGINCPATH).

The configure script uses the variables when testing for the TIFF library,
but that only matters if the TIFF library was built with JPEG support but it
requires specific switches to locate the JPEG library (e.g. if the TIFF
library is a static library).

If using --with-tiff and --without-jpeg works, either your TIFF library
doesn't have JPEG support, or it can find the JPEG library without any
assistance. Either way, adding --with-jpeg won't make any difference.

Hi Moritz,

personally, I think the information about the GDAL, proj, etc are minor
compared to the info about postgresql.
Maybe you could just add a ** with a note packages containing libraries and
binaries, all others only contain library files, or something similar.

Please, check if it works for you now. It's late here, and my brain
continues to fail connections (brain ping errors!), so you'll probably need
to fix my english errors ;-)

Goodnight

Marco

 Hi Moritz,

Just one last remark: IIRC, for PostgreSQL you only provide the  
libpg.dll,
 not the entire postgresql installation.
This should be mentioned. And what about sqlite ? Did you include the
 sqlite.exe ?

 For PostgreSQL I provide only libpq.dll, while for SQLite I provide 
 *all the build*, that is also sqlite.exe.
 On the same way, should I notice also further info for Tcl/Tk (as for 
 SQLite, I provide *all the build* of it)?

 But this would open a *pandora's box*, because on this way I should 
 specify also what files I exactly provide from other stuffs (such as 
 tiff, gdal,
 proj)

 Opened to all suggestions ;-)

 Hi all,

 Thanks for all the suggestions: I modified the document, and finally 
 it sounds good for me:

 So, let's start the poll! ;-)
