[Qgis-user] Re: Problem with big tiff

[Hugo]

Hi all,

Thanks for your comments. Edward, thanks for you directions but i really
need to solve this issue and moreover i really enjoy QGIS/GRASS, and so, i
want to keep up with it. The problem now is that i have several projects
saved that no longer work with raster files (it really doesn't matter what
size they have). When each project starts loading, i can see all the
vectorial files being loaded correctly. But as soon as it gets to load any
type of raster file QGIS just crashes ans shuts down.

Launching QGIS from the terminal has give me the clue to what is wrong: the
problem is with my libtiff version. I can see that i have libtiff 4.0
installed but QGIS is looking for libtiff3 (exactly what Giovanni has
pointed out).

Here is the terminal output:
Error:
    GDAL Error 1: WARNING ! libtiff version mismatch : You're linking
against libtiff 3.X but GDAL has been compiled against libtiff >= 4.0.0

So my question is how can i fix this?
Kind regards,

Hugo
