[gdal-dev] Extract BIGTiff libraries from GDAL source package

[Enrico Sartorello]

Hi Frank and David,
thank you very much for your informations.

As you've correctly told, my searches on Google lead me thinking that the
Aperio distribution was the right side to get BIGTiff libraries.
Now everything is clear to me, thanks for your clarification!

Best regards,
