This package is:
 -    How to build a jumptable version of librl.a

It is based on:
 -    HJ Lu's package: How to build the Linux Shared Libs (shlib....TZ)

It contains:
 -    Modified sources from the pbmplus 10dec91 package.
 -    Modified sources from the Utah Raster Toolkit libraryi V3.1a.
 -    Modified sources from the TIFF library V3.0
 -    Modified sources from the Independent JPEG group library V3.
 -    Modified scripts for building this specific jump lib. Due to many
      simplifications it is absolutely NOT suited to replace anything HLU
      has released.

It was designed by:
 -    Rob Hooft (hooft@chem.ruu.nl)

With help of:
 -    David Engel (david@ods.com), the original author of the JumpTables.
 -    H.J. Lu (hlu@eecs.wsu.edu), the maintainer of our GCC and libc.

To build the lib:
 -    You will need at least 19 MB of virtual memory to be able to compile
      tiff/00_DATA.c with the current version of GCC (2.2.2d7 or ss-920925).
      Take some coffee: with 16MB of real memory and 4MB of swap it took me
      about 10 minutes to compile this single file (and I had to do it many
      times to get it all right.....).
 -    cd to the 'jump' directory.
 -    modify the Makefile, it needs to know the directory where it is running.
 -    Type 'make clean' (if desired).
 -    Type 'make'.

To install the lib:
 -    copy jump/lib*.a to /usr/lib/shlib/jump
 -    copy jump/libgr.so.0.1 to /lib
 -    ln -s /lib/libgr.so.0.1 /lib/libgr.so.0
 -    copy ./lib*.a to /usr/lib
 -    probably copy some of the include files to a standard place.

To use the lib:
 -    Every executable linked with the jumptable lib must be linked with
      libtiff.a as well. This library is the only one that knows how to
      load the shared image. It doesn't cause any overhead.

Warning:
 -   If you modify any of the scripts, you better know what you're doing...
 -   All sources to the library come without documentation. Get the originals
     instead. Included sources are also incomplete.
 -   Be careful: This is a first test of this lib, as is indicated by
     the version number 0.1. There are probably bugs.....
