I have pushed libtiff 4.0.1 into rawhide, replacing libtiff 3.9.5.
This entails a library soname bump and a few small source-level
incompatibilities, as detailed at
http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/v4.0.0.html

By my count there are about a hundred dependent packages (see list
below), so to avoid breaking rawhide until everything can be rebuilt,
I have put the old 3.9.x library into a temporary subpackage
"libtiff-compat".  (We used the same trick a few months ago for libpng
and it seemed to work all right.)

I did trial rebuilds of all these packages against libtiff 4.0.1,
and found only three that appear to need any source-code changes;
though another dozen have pre-existing FTBFS problems which means
I can't tell for sure if they would build against the new libtiff.

If any of these packages are yours, please rebuild at the soonest
opportunity.  If you need advice about fixing either libtiff- or
libpng-dependent code, contact me off-list and I'll be glad to
try to help.

corsepiu    OpenSceneGraph	pre-existing FTBFS
Could you point me to this "pre-existing FTBFS"?

Digging BZ, koji and googling did not turn up any formal FTBFS, however
when trying to rebuild OSG, it indeed fail to build due to an issue
which seems unrelated to libtiff.

Which, IMO, is exactly what Tom wants to point out.

Thanks, then I likely misunderstood him.

The package would
FTBFS already prior to the libtiff upgrade. Not all FTBFS issues are filed
in bugzilla. Only those when the FTBFS checker script is run.

Makes me wonder what actually has broken building OSG.

Must be a recent change in of OSGs numerous build-deps, because it had been rebuilt several times without major changes for ca. a year[1]
