If all goes well, it should only be a couple of days.

Actually, I just tried building tiff with libjbig-dev installed, and I
get the following:

...
checking for jbg_dec_init in -ljbig... no
checking jbig.h usability... yes
checking jbig.h presence... yes
checking for jbig.h... yes
...
 Support for external codecs:
...
  ISO JBIG support:                   no
...

If I look at the libraries:

% cd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
% ls -l *jbig*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    14 Apr  6 08:08 libjbig.so -> libjbig.so.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    16 Apr  6 08:08 libjbig.so.0 -> libjbig.so.0.0.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 58912 Apr  6 08:08 libjbig.so.0.0.0

it seems that libjbig.so is wrong.  The .0.0.0 is suspicious anyway.  Is
there no proper shared library versioning here?

Updating the link of libjbig.so to point to libjbig.so.0.0.0 corrects
the problem.  I'll delay any uploads until I hear back that this problem
is fixed.  If you need a sponsor for your upload and your regular
sponsor is slow to respond or unavailable, let me know, and I can
sponsor.
