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?
