Wendell,

How did you determine that geotiff is not supported?  Generally MapServer
is built --without-tiff allowing tiff support to be provided by GDAL.

It might also be helpful if you indicated the source of the .rpm you are
referring to since I don't think it is an official product of the project
and there are a number of sources for rpms.

Best regards,
