I have being trying to install OpenCV on Ubuntu 16.04 unsing several tutorials and i always end up with an error. This is the last one i've got following this tutorial:
https://github.com/BVLC/caffe/wiki/Ubuntu-16.04-or-15.10-OpenCV-3.1-Installation-Guide
What can i do?

I followed the same tutorial for install opencv and I had the same problem. This works for me:
sudo apt-get autoremove libtiff5-dev
sudo apt-get install libtiff5-dev
Enter the opencv directory.
cd build/ (I guess that is already created,otherwise create it)
cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local -D WITH_TBB=ON -D WITH_V4L=ON -D WITH_QT=ON -D WITH_OPENGL=ON ..
make
then continue with the tutorial.
According to this, OpenCV needs libtiff4, which Ubuntu has dropped, i.e. the package that replaced it is libtiff5-dev.
As a temporary workaround you can specify -DBUILD_TIFF=ON on cmake when configuring, in order to build the libtiff4 version that is distributed with OpenCV.
This worked for me in Ubuntu 16.04, with OpenCV 3.2.1.
Looks like you need to install/reinstall libpng.
Try make clean ,and then again execute the make command. Generally after one failure if you try the make command without cleaning the earlier installation, you get errors.
I had similar issue. I was building openCV 3.3.0 together with opencv_contrib repository. It turned out that including the flag -D BUILD_TIFF=ON with cmake command resolved the issue as pointed out by gevang already.
Ps.: Since I'm only acknowledging the solution provided by gevang, this should rather a be comment instead of an answer, but I'm missing the corresponding rights. Sorry for that.
