Freetype appears to have a non-standard build system. Adding to CFLAGS in this way overrides all the CFLAGS already setup by the configure script, hence the bomb. Clearly, this technique is not always appropriate. I only pointed it out as a solution to the GPM problem where you're clobbering the user's existing LDFLAGS. My first preference is always to pass the params to configure as per your 2nd example, but that doesn't work in the GPM case. Regards Greg PS - I build my freetype with `-fno-strict-aliasing' too :-) -- http://www.diy-linux.org/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
