Yes, if you plan on using XFT with fltk, you really need to have XFT in place first so that the build can make use of it (though technically, if you are not building fluid or the test examples, you can probably build the fltk libs with only the XFT and related headers in place...) > i tried building libXFT and am running into an error where it is looking > for fontconfig/fcprivate.h file. > This is a part of FontConfig, so now am i expected to build FontConfig too > ? Yes, XFT is (more or less) intertwined with Fontconfig, so you need to have Fontconfig in place before you can build XFT. At the lowest level, a lot of XFT and FC functions are interchangeable (at least on Linux) so you can call either XftThing() or FcThing() in many cases and they are the same "thing" in practice... > > Or am i completely off track here ? No, other than my on-going worry and belief that persisting with Nxlib is just making a rod for your own back. With a more conventional X-server this would all Just Work and you wouldn't even need to ask this question!
