No, you are wrong. The FreeType *Fedora package* was shipping both FreeType 1 and FreeType 2, so it included libttf.so. When updating it to FreeType 2.2.1, I removed the FreeType 1 stuff. That hit Rawhide this weekend. I'm going to package freetype1 for extras. To summarize, this has nothing to do with FreeType proper, or GNOME. Just a Fedora packaging issue. behdad > -Joseph > > =========================================================================== > > On Mon, 2006-07-10 at 23:35 +0800, James Henstridge wrote: > > On 10/07/06, Joseph E.
