What were you trying to do?
     	Use the pat2pdf script from tothink.com

What's wrong:
	an update on certain platforms broke tiff2ps, which
	is used by said script

What should have happened:
     	the script used to work over dialup as well as on
	all athena workstations, now it only works on athena
	linux platform boxes.

Please describe any relevant documentation references: >> Hi, I went
to sipb this week to ask why a script i've been using on athena >>
stopped working.  we determined that there was a libtiff update on
some >> athena platforms which broke tiff2ps.  linux platform seems to
be >> unaffected, however on dialup machines that is not the case.  >>
>> i'm not sure if the person who helped me at sipb submitted a bug
report, >> or if i was supposed to do it.  I'm not sure how to check,
so I'm asking >> olc.  Are there any recent bug submissions regarding
libtiff?  any way I >> can check online?

The "bugs" list is archived on discuss - I checked, and didn't see any 
bug reports about libtiff or tiff2ps.  You can submit a bug report by typing
"sendbug" at an Athena prompt, and you can view the bugs list discuss 
archive online at: http://diswww.mit.edu/menelaus/bugs/

If you have any additional questions, please let us know!  Otherwise, you can 
mark this question as "Done" by typing "olc done" at an Athena prompt.
