In my seeking a managable way to build libtiff, on the Asterfax forum I got the following recommendation (from another fax user that made the move to libtiff 3.8.2):
Well one initerestng observation on installing these rpms.
I have built this just now on CentOS-4 and it seems to build and install. You are welcome to use it:
http://centos.hughesjr.com/testing/libtiff-3.8.2-2/
I don't plan to maintain these on updates, unless you ask me to rebuild them.
You should be able to install them on any machines as the root user (from a directory containing the the RPMS):
yum localinstall libtiff-3.8.2-2.i386.rpm
This failed with:

yum localinstall libtiff-3.8.2-2.i386.rpm libtiff-devel-3.8.2-2.i386.rpm
Actually this did not seem to work either but the following did:
yum localinstall libtiff-devel-3.8.2-2.i386.rpm libtiff-3.8.2-2.i386.rpm
Interesting that order is important....
