[Insight-users] Problem cross-compiling ITK 4.2.1 for MX53 (Ed Menard) [SOLVED]

[Ed Menard]

Hi Vladmir,

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction...
Setting ITK_USE_SYSTEM_TIFF to ON did help, but then I found that the TIFF
library built for my target system was an older version, and ITK still
wouldn't compile...

No time at the moment to update/rebuild my cross-environment, so I dropped
back to ITK 3.20.1, and that compiled successfully (with
ITK_USE_SYSTEM_TIFF)...

Thanks for your help!
