Gavin,

I'm using MrSID 8.0 successfully on Ubuntu 10.04 successfully.

Could you search for "XTIFFClientOpen" in config.log after the
configure failure?  Often there details in there on why the probe
failed.

I haven't run into the problem you report but I have run into
problems before where the system libgeotiff is incompatible
with the one built into the MrSID SDK.

Best regards,
