Problem on CYGWIN ( MinGW Mode ) with SDL_image

SDL Development

Hello !

On CYGWIN ( MinGW Mode ) i have not installed libTIFF,
./configure detected that, but after that when using make
to compile SDL_image it gave me an error that it is not able
to compile because of the missing libTIFF.

I had to use --disable-tif to really disable it.

Blame me.
I might have messed up some conditional check when rewriting the
configure script.
I’ll check it again.

Actually, don’t blame me.

Revision 2404 is to blame:
On line 240 of configure.in, if libtiff is not found then ‘enable_tif =
yes’ (if --disable-tif wasn’t used), but the conditional doesn’t check
if libtiff was available (variable ‘have_libtiff’), so it adds libtiff
back to the linker’s library search.

Also, can someone explain lines 246-250; why are we adding libjpeg stuff
in the libtiff conditional?

And again, why does lines 251 (which shouldn’t be there), and line 267
add libz to the libraries without checking it exists. libpng and libtiff
might not depend on libz, and libz might have been deleted after
building libpng or/and libtiff.
