Sooooo, I uninstalled and reinstalled fontconfig and double-checked each step along the way. Fontconfig.pc was not installed again. It got compiled--it's in the source tree--but it didn't get put where it belongs.
Because I use the more_control_package_helpers management system, something like this usually ends up to be a permissions problem, but the scripting usually kicks out an error message if that's the case. In this case the permissions along the install path /usr/lib/pkgconfig are all OK. I'm sure that installing it to the directory will work, but I sure would like to know what went wrong with the fontconfig installation. I've looked at the Makefile and install-sh and don't recognize any problems. Thanks, Bruce and Dan for the help. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
