I just installed mozilla 1.3-2 from unstable crypto and when
it started up the first time I got a zillion errors like

font /System/Library/Fonts/Geneva.dfont   FreeType failed to open, error=19575472

And the fonts looked pretty awful in mozilla, though with
some fiddling I got a more usable basic set.  (I think
mozilla is also having some problems sorting out screen
resolution on my TiBook that interact badly with the font
selection.)

Anyway, I guess I have something wrong with my freetype
setup:  fink list freetype

     freetype         1.3.1-6      TrueType font rendering library, version 1
     freetype-bin     1.3.1-6      TrueType font rendering library, version 1
 i   freetype-hintin  1.3.1-7      TrueType font rendering library, version ...
 i   freetype-hintin  1.3.1-7      TrueType font rendering library, version ...
 i   freetype-hintin  1.3.1-7      TrueType font rendering library, version ...
     freetype-shlibs  1.3.1-6      TrueType font rendering library, version 1
 i   freetype2        2.1.3-1      TrueType font rendering library, version 2
     freetype2-hinti  2.1.3-1      TrueType font rendering library, version 2
     freetype2-hinti  2.1.3-1      TrueType font rendering library, version ...
 i   freetype2-shlib  2.1.3-1      TrueType font rendering library, version ...

I don't recall choosing this subset, perhaps various other
things required them?

Do I need to do anything after installing FreeType to make
it work?

Everything fink I have should be up to date cvs unstable.
I tweaked the pango1-xft2 info file to get mozilla to
install with system-xfree86-43 and it seemed to work so I
hope that isn't the root of the problem.  Blushes and
apologies if so...

thanks for any suggestions...
