It's not really vital for most GTK+ applications, definitely not for GIMP. But since you will want to compile the tiff plug-in in GIMP later, we better tell you how to persuade configure to find libtiff... Check the output of configure --help. It tells you how to add linker, compiler and preprocessor flags. What you will need here is something like LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib ./configure Sven _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
