Hmm, this is not a packaging error, but an omission in the upstream tarball for 3.6.1.  To fix, we'd have to investigate the differences between 3.6.1 and 3.8.2 tiffset (which are nontrivial to judge from the relative sizes of tiffset.c) and then modify the 3.8.2 man page accordingly.  Not sure if it's worth fixing.
Comment 2 Milos Malik 2009-06-30 06:42:52 UTC 
Let's wait for the change in upstream tarball.
Comment 3 Tom Lane 2009-06-30 13:46:16 UTC 
Agreed, closing WONTFIX.
