For me it works (see attached image). Can you try to find out why
ftview fails?
It probably was built on a system that didn't have the X11 development
packages installed.
I just noticed that FC6 ships with such a broken ftview, and the README
file in the "ft2demos" directory seems to suggest that this would be the
cause of the problem. I'm not familiar with FC's build system, but if
they intentionally avoid circular dependencies, they probably won't ship
a working ftview in the future, either (unless they break freetype-demos
into its own src.rpm)
