Image_upload - libtiff.so.6: cannot open shared object file

Configuration Frontend

Hello there,

If you have, like me, an error with 2023.10.0 like this on RPi (because latest version on bullseye is 5.6)

Component error: image_upload - libtiff.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Here is “my” solution

  1. Open a command line

  2. Clone the libtiff source code
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt upgrade
    sudo apt install git
    git clone https://gitlab.com/libtiff/libtiff.git

  3. Install cmake (optional if you have it already)
    sudo apt install cmake

  4. Make and install
    cd libtiff
    cmake .
    make
    make test
    sudo make install

  5. Create symlinks
    cd /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/
    sudo ln -fs /usr/local/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libtiff.so.6 .
    sudo ln -fs /usr/local/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libtiff.so.6.0.2 .

Thanks! Finally back into my HA build. Looks like i will have to get onto HA-OS, seems like they are not keeping us core users are being left behind.
