Description of problem: The 16 bit tiff support present in PIL needs an extra small patch added to make it work correctly. This can be found here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-imaging/+bug/198892 Any chance of adding this to the Fedora packages (I just bumped into the issue myself, and it took a while to work out why it wasn't working).
Without digging too much on this issue do you know if this support is present in the coming 1.1.7 series that is now at beta (alpha?) stage?

I don't know actually - I checked on the webpage but don't see any link for the 1.1.7 series download. Do you have a link? [Actually the support is actually present in 1.1.6 but not enabled due to that single missing line - seems like an oversight.]
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

I am bit short on time, but if you could test that the change works I will test and ship an update for 1.1.6 with the simple one line fix. Thanks.

Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
