Hi everyone, I'm trying to compile PovRAY 3.6.1 on IRIX 6.5.25 using gcc3.3
This is where it fails:

Making all in tiff/libtiff
gmake[3]: Entering directory `/d2/povray-3.6.1/libraries/tiff/libtiff'
gmake[3]: *** No rule to make target `all'.  Stop.

Any ideas? I've tried tried to disable tiff support, but --without-tiff
doesn't work.

          Thanks in advance, vtech

You cannot disable any library included with POV-Ray, they are all mandatory 
to build a working version off POV-Ray.

What you can do, however, other than fixing the libtiff configure/makefiles 
is to look for  distributions of libtiff with the appropriate version (not 
an older version!) for Irix.  Then install those and configure/make POV-Ray 
again, it will detect the version you installed and use that.

Thank you, I'll try it. V.

The current Irix tarball is
http://freeware.sgi.com/Dist/fw_tiff-v3.5.7.tardist
Hope that helps.
If you get it to work I'd like to know
