[Pkg-blender-maintainers] Bug#364473: blender: Blender can't find libtiff even when it's installed

[Max Gilead]

Package: blender
Version: 2.41-1
Severity: normal


Blender can't find libtiff when starting:
Unable to load: libtiff.
Try setting the BF_TIFF_LIB environment variable if you want this support.
Example: setenv BF_TIFF_LIB /usr/lib/libtiff.so

package libtiff is installed:
ii  libtiff4       3.8.2-1        Tag Image File Format (TIFF) library

but it's /usr/lib/libtiff.so.4 not /usr/lib/libtiff.so

Regards,
Max
