The following issue has been SUBMITTED. ====================================================================== http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=13959 ====================================================================== Reported By: Julian Ospald Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: CMake Issue ID: 13959 Category: Modules Reproducibility: always Severity: minor Priority: normal Status: new ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 2013-02-27 11:56 EST Last Modified: 2013-02-27 11:56 EST ====================================================================== Summary: FindFreetype.cmake does not have a fallback (like pkgconfig or freetype-config) Description: Freetype offers two ways to _correctly_ get the header and library location.
a) via pkgconfig file (freetype2.pc) b) via freetype-config script The lack of any of the above checks can and does lead to cmake configure failures, especially since freetype supports installing the headers into a custom location, because they contain ABI-specific information. I am not suggesting to change the current module logic, but to just add a _fallback_ in case the current methods fail. And they already do for some usecases. ====================================================================== Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2013-02-27 11:56 Julian Ospald New Issue ====================================================================== -- Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cmake-developers
