Re: [osg-users] Question about libtiff usage

[Chris Hanson]

Brian, it sounds like you have a binary distribution including OSG. Was it
part of a larger application using OSG?

If it was part of an application, based on libtiff.dll being included in
it, I would hazard a guess that it might be used by your application as
most people have to do extra work to include libtiff in OSG builds.

If you want to message me privately, I can maybe help you assess if it's
actually something you need or if you can safely nix it.

The OSG's tif plugin uses libtiff to read .tf image files.  libtiff is an
an optional dependency, so the only functionality you loose without it is
loading of tif files.
