title: trouble with building the correct LIBTIFF version in ubuntu
body: <p>My machine (Ubuntu 12.04) currently has libtiff.so.4.3.4:  </p>
  
  <pre><code>% locate libtiff.so.4
  /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.4
  /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.4.3.4
  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.4
  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.4.3.4
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want to manually build the libtiff4 (same version 4.3.4 if possible) on my machine. However, I could not find this version anywhere. Weirdly when I download and install tiff-4.0.0 or higher version from <a href="http://download.osgeo.org/libtiff/" rel="nofollow">http://download.osgeo.org/libtiff/</a> it gives me version 5.x (tiff-4.0.0.tar.gz gives me libtiff.so.5.0.5, and tiff-4.0.3.tar.gz gives me libtiff.so.5.2.0).</p>
  
  <p>If I try tiff-3.9.6.tar.gz it gives me libtiff.so.3.9.6, but I want libtiff.so.4 version. Can anyone tell me where to get the libtiff.so.4 library?</p>
