I don't think this is it, since googleearth includes it's own libtiff, but I'll look at it when I get a chance. > > Maybe adding a "--quiet" mode to the whole make-googleearth-package > > process would be helpful, though. > > > > > After this I get the info "Success!".

You can always try to contact Google on their earth.google.com site; I have no idea how good their support is (or if it even exists). I'd be happy to fix this in googleearth-package if someone finds a bug and/or a workaround, but there is no way I'm going to be able to debug it myself with a closed source app. =( Anyway, good luck, and thanks for the feedback. -- Wesley J.
