My problem is pretty much identical to here except none of the solutions there are working for me. I'm assuming the issue there was for python 2.7 because my issue is specific to python 3.5.1
TL;DR: The following commands all do not work, details below
- sudo apt-get install libtiff5
- sudo dpkg -i libtiff5_4.0.3-7ubuntu0.3_amd64.deb
- python setup.py install (pylibtiff, a libtiff wrapper)
- conda install libtiff
- pip install libtiff
What I've tried:

I'm not sure what the %r to PATH environment variable means. However, I did reboot. No effect.
Next I tried pylibtiff:

Python 3.5.1 |Anaconda 2.4.1- maybe you need to use conda install? – steeldriver Feb 11 '16 at 22:37
