what's the current setup with these image libraries? since i see there is jpeg and png but not tiff for mingw although gtk use all of them. now mingw32-gtk use mingw32-png or system png? are you sure about it?? from the build log i see libtiff and libpng installed by some deps. is it sure that mingw32-gtk do not use system libtiff? i just come to that conclusion because gtk+ can't compile without libtiff our --without-libtiff.
There's a discrepency between the list of dependencies in the gtk2 (native Fedora) package and the mingw32-gtk2 package. One of the missing deps is, as you say, libtiff.
Dan did the Gtk2 packaging so I don't know if this was because libtiff was hard to compile on Windows, or just to save time (because tiff is not a widely used image format).
Also the version numbers have diverged a little.
Anyway if you need libtiff for gtk1 you'll have to package it yourself.
Rich.
