[Xastir-dev] Geotifs causing crashes

[James A Vincent]

Thanks to all of you who provided advice.  I have downloaded, compiled and installed tiff-v.3.6.1 and attempted to compile libgeotiff-1.2.1.  After ./configure and make I get the following message below !

Any further advice !

Thanks for your tolerance !
