I would assume you have tiff in your USE line in make.conf?

Just in case you missed that little detail. ;-)
Yes, I missed that, and it did the trick (after re-emerging 11 packages,
including kde-libs).
Where was it hidden, that I missed it? Or is it just one of those things
"you have to learn"? Seems like the tif package should add it, or tell me
to consider adding it, when the package is installed.
