Until use of 'diff -Z' (e.g. use 'diff -b', or process using tr or sed) in the test suite is corrected, and default scripting which is incompatible with current Python releases (e.g. 3.12.6) is corrected.  Execution of Spinx as root (as would be commonly done) makes me very uncomfortable, and especially for source-based systems (Gentoo, pkgsrc, FreeBSD Ports, etc.) where this would be done on end user systems.

https://gitlab.com/libtiff/libtiff/-/merge_requests/660 should hopefully address those issues (I've merged the MR with the sphinx-as-root issue). If nobody finds something horribly wrong in it, I'll merge it tomorrow and issue rc2 with that.

Note that by "default scripting", I am talking about the apparently reported issue that newer Python is not compatible with our existing Python scripts.

Using Ubuntu as a test platform is great for libtiff code, but it seems it is not great at getting build/test exposure on newer systems, or with newer versions of Python than Ubuntu provides.

I still did not see mention of the version of Python that Lee Howard is using (python3 --version).
