I can not approve this release candidate.

I took care to remove all vestiges of libtiff 4.7.2 and re-installed libtiff 4.7.1. I built and linked GraphicsMagick against libtiff 4.7.1. I ran the 'genimages' script and saw all of the checks pass.  Then I installed libtiff 4.7.2 and ran the 'genimages' script again.  680 out of 5568 test cases failed.  A strange thing is that often the only difference between a test case which passes or fails is the requested compression algorithm.  The corrupt image is typically posterized so the defect is very obvious and is not just a few bad pixels.  It is possible that libtiff is corrupting memory used by GraphicsMagick.

Hi,

I've prepared a second release candidate for libtiff v4.7.2:

- https://download.osgeo.org/libtiff/tiff-4.7.2rc2.tar.gz
- https://download.osgeo.org/libtiff/tiff-4.7.2rc2.tar.xz
- https://download.osgeo.org/libtiff/tiff-4.7.2rc2.zip

Differences since rc1: fixing issue reported yesterday by Christoph Gohlke, and a few build warnings on MacOSX

Motion: approve libtiff 4.7.2rc2 as final 4.7.2

Starting with my +1
