Hello,
I have uploaded a set of rpms for use with the PPC shared library
compiler. These are the files...
libgr-2.0.9-6A.ppc.rpm
libgr-devel-2.0.9-6A.ppc.rpm
libgr-progs-2.0.9-6A.ppc.rpm.try2 (the first upload stalled)
libgr-2.0.9-6A.src.rpm
xv-3.10a-6A.ppc.rpm
xv-3.10a-6A.src.rpm
A few notes. The libgr package is from RedHat 4.1 and provides shared lib
versions of all the graphic formats (tiff, jpeg, etc) as well as
conversion utilities. If you choose to rebuild libgr be aware that it
is NOT installed until you do a 'rpm -i' on the resulting .ppc.rpm's.
The xv rpms I have uploaded have been modified by myself to produce
a version of xv that is linked with the libtiff.so and libjpeg.so
instead of the normal static link that RedHat distributes. You will
notice a trick in the spec file of xv-3.10a-6A.src.rpm. Because there
are so many minor type differences in the old tiff headers xv uses
I let xv build against these old headers and then linked against the
newer versions of the tiff libs. The resulting program runs fine
and saves us from having to mess with the authors code. Let me know
if you have any problems with this version of xv. I have exercised
the tiff functions in xv and it appears to work correctly. It is much
smaller as well...

Please place these in the /pub/linuxppc/linux-2.0.28/redhat directories
after you look them over. Thanks.
