For the record: Windell and I tracked this down to an older version of Fink's "make" package being installed. In fact, the make package, version 3.79.1-3 from the current Fink binary distribution, does not allow to build freetype219 correctly. I am crossposting this to fink-devel, because this solves one of the older riddles I have spent time on repeatedly over at least the last 3 years: The freetype2 build system uses make scripts that do things that the older make does not execute correctly. In particular, shell variables transmitted over several levels of acrobatically interwoven shell and make scripts have a habit of not arriving at their destination. In the case at hand, /usr/local/lib showed up in the place of $libdir, although --prefix=/sw/lib/freetype219 was given to the configure script. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
